Turns out you need more than one hour to evacuate a Precision Guided Missile (PGM) manufacturing site, so Hezbollah hoped the reporters just wouldn't notice.
Well... we did.
Here’s what was hiding in plain sight:

🔇Sound OFF
We've put Hezbollah's dangerous lies on mute for you:
1128
For the first time in history, the IDF will be treating Israeli civilians in Israeli hospitals. We are working with @IsraelMOH & the Rambam Medical Center in Haifa to operate 2 hospital wards & treat Israeli civilians with #COVID19.
Together, we are fighting COVID-19.
1129
We just spotted 2 suspects who crossed the security fence from Gaza into Israel. The suspects hurled an inactive grenade that did not explode.
Our soldiers responded with fire & apprehended them. A knife, cutter, & another inactive grenade were found in their possession.

Here are the coordinates to put in your Waze. Let's hope the journalists get there before Nasrallah's moving trucks do:
📍33.854951N, 35.486802E
And two bonus sites to check out afterward 😉
📍33.832307N, 35.513772E
📍33.815185N, 35.510432E

This is not the first time we've exposed Hezbollah's Precision Guided Missile (PGM) manufacturing sites in the heart of Beirut.
But the international community can help make this the last time.
It's time for the world to stand up against the use of human shields by Hezbollah.
1132
On the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, we wish you all a meaningful and reflective Yom Kippur.

4/ Dear world,
The international outrage should begin now.
Hezbollah should not be storing weapons in civilian areas and risking the lives of the Lebanese people.
Humans should not serve as shields for weapons.
1134
2/ Hezbollah’s strategy is to hide their weapons inside civilian neighborhoods. Why? So that if things were to escalate with Israel, Israel would have no choice but to target civilian areas.
1135
3/ Why does Hezbollah want Israel to target civilian areas? Because then there would be international outrage at the fact that Israel has targeted civilians.
1136
1/ No military should have to write a thread like this, but we can’t stand idly by when there are important questions that must be asked:
Last week, a Hezbollah arms depot exploded in the middle of a neighborhood in southern Lebanon
...but why was it there in the first place?
1137
The Israeli Navy & @Israel_MOD have been testing the waters...
with our brand new Israeli-made sea-to-sea missile system. Watch exclusive testing footage:

Hezbollah and Iran—the world’s most toxic long-distance relationship.
This is how Iran arms its proxy in Lebanon over 600 miles away:

Our soldiers just thwarted an attack adjacent to the village of Malik, northwest of Ramallah.
IDF troops spotted a number of assailants preparing to hurl Molotov cocktails and fired toward them. Hits were identified.
1141
📍Ain Qana [southern Lebanon]
A quiet village is an unlikely base for a global terror group's weapons arsenal.
But yesterday, a neglected arms depot hidden within the village suddenly blew up.
Hezbollah, your use of civilian homes for terror is laid bare for all to see.
1142
The creation of a new "Ella" Unit for Epidemiological Investigation has just been approved by the Minister of Defense & IDF Chief of the Gen. Staff. 600 soldiers will strengthen our Home Front Command's epidemiological investigation efforts.
Our fight against #COVID19 continues.
1143
As we ring in the Jewish New Year, here are some of the IDF's newest additions from the past year:
1144
1/
Iran. Hezbollah. Syria.
What's the connection between them?
And what does it have to do with Israel?
1145
Terrorists in Gaza have fired 15 rockets at Israel since last night.
In response, our Air Force just struck Hamas targets in Gaza including a weapons & explosives manufacturing factory and a military compound.
We will continue to operate against any attempts to attack Israel.

A dozen EU ambassadors witnessed a Gaza terror tunnel firsthand, were informed on the threats we face, & concluded their day with a briefing with the CO of the Southern Command, MG Herzi Halevi, today.
The IDF will continue defending Israel while seeking to maintain stability.

Lt. Col. Efrat Kaykov Levy just became the first female battalion commander in the IDF Artillery Corps.
Here's to shattering glass ceilings.
