The IDF says it is bolstering troops in northern Israel amid the ongoing fighting with Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Following a fresh assessment, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir has instructed that the Golani Brigade be sent from the Southern Command to the Northern Command, the military says.
“Subsequently, and in accordance with a situation assessment, it will be decided whether to reinforce with additional forces,” the IDF says.
