The IDF says it carried out a wave of airstrikes against Hezbollah intelligence division sites in the Lebanese capital of Beirut a short while ago.
Overnight, several more strikes were carried out in Beirut, which according to the military targeted weapon depots, command rooms, and other infrastructure.
The IDF says it took steps to mitigate civilian harm in the strikes, including using “precision munitions,” aerial surveillance, and issuing evacuation orders.
Meanwhile, some 60 rockets were fired at northern Israel earlier today in two barrages at the Galilee, the IDF says.
Many of the rockets were intercepted, but some impacted in Karmiel and Deir al-Asad, lightly wounding three and causing damage.
Bridging the US-Israel divide
While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power.
As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship beyond the platitudes evident in public statements.
I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's entire, complex story.
