Defense Minister Yoav Gallant is holding an assessment on the IDF’s readiness “to expand the offensive activity” on the northern front, his office says.
The assessment is being held with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, head of the Operations Directorate, Maj. Gen. Oded Basiuk, and head of the Intelligence Directorate, Maj. Gen. Shlomi Binder.
The meeting comes after Hezbollah terror chief Hassan Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli airstrike yesterday, as Israel ramps up its attacks on the Lebanese terror group.
