IDF tightens restrictions in parts of north, bracing for intensified Hezbollah rocket fire

The IDF Home Front Command issues new restrictions in several areas of northern Israel, amid swirling reports of a potential imminent ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.

As part of the changes, the Home Front Command has adjusted the activity scale in the Golan Heights and northern frontier communities from “partial activity” to “limited activity.”

The changes mean that most schools won’t be open and large events will not be able to be held.

Israel fears Hezbollah will ramp up rocket attacks before a ceasefire comes into effect.
