Outgoing IDF Chief of the General Staff Lt. Gen. Gadi Eisenkot getting ready for the most important job of all: full-time grandpa.

180ft deep underground 2,624ft dug under #Lebanon Dozens of yards dug into Israel This #Hezbollah attack tunnel was dug from the Lebanese village of Ramyeh into Israel & will be neutralized soon. We have now exposed all attack tunnels dug by Hezbollah from Lebanon into Israel.
Earlier tonight, a rocket was launched from Gaza towards Israeli territory. In response, IDF fighter jets targeted two of Hamas' underground structures in the Gaza Strip. We will continue operating to defend Israeli civilians.
🚨INITIAL REPORT: Sirens sounded in the Sdot Negev and Sha'ar HaNegev Regional Councils.
Real talk: Hamas actively seeks Israel's destruction. When Hamas sends violent mobs from #Gaza to Israel's border, we don’t sit back and watch. If nobody stops the rioters, they’ll reach Israeli homes in minutes. The border is there for a reason. Protip: Don't try to breach it.
In response to the violence, IDF aircraft targeted 2 Hamas military posts. The IDF holds Hamas responsible for all violence that emanates from the Gaza Strip.
13,000 Gazan rioters amassed on Israel’s border, throwing grenades and explosives. There were 3 incidents of Gazans breaking through the border fence into Israel. Our soldiers stopped them before they could reach the homes of Israeli families who live minutes away.
Moments ago, a Palestinian attempted to carry out a stabbing attack in Kiryat Arba, south of Jerusalem. Our soldiers spotted the terrorist, called to him to stop, and when the terrorist was meters away and brandishing a knife, they neutralized him.
@CNET #FijiWaterGirl really is everywhere...
In response to the rocket fired at Israel from Gaza, IDF fighter jets and a helicopter targeted a number of terror targets within Hamas's military camp in northern Gaza. We hold the Hamas terror organization accountable for all acts of terror emanating from the Gaza Strip.
A rocket launch from Gaza into Israel was identified and intercepted by the IDF’s Iron Dome Aerial Defense System.
🚨3:00AM, ISRAEL: Sirens sounded in the city of Ashkelon and the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council. Details to follow.
Balloons: Strong enough to lift a house in the @DisneyPixar family movie, Up. Dangerous enough to carry explosives towards Israeli families in real life. Today, Hamas launched explosives attached to balloons from Gaza into Israel. This isn't a movie, it's real life.
@SputnikInt URGENT: Context matters. Hamas attached explosives to balloons and flew them from Gaza into Israel with the aim of killing innocent Israelis. Our strikes on Hamas targets were a response to this act of terror.
In response to the attempted attack, IDF helicopters targeted two Hamas military posts in Gaza. Hamas will bear the consequences of its actions.
Looks like a bunch of birthday balloons, right? They are, but with explosives attached to them. These explosive balloons were tied to a model airplane and flown from Gaza into Israel by Hamas, with the intention of killing innocent Israelis.
Moments ago, shots were fired towards a public bus near the community of Beit El, north of Jerusalem, lightly injuring the bus driver. Our soldiers are currently searching the area for suspects.
Doing the #BirdBox Challenge the right way... @netflix, we took your advice 👌🏻
