Hezbollah is believed to have planned to launch missiles this morning at the Glilot base near Herzliya, where several IDF intelligence units and the Mossad headquarters are based, according to Israeli assessments.

The IDF said that it destroyed thousands of Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon this morning, most of which were aimed at northern Israel but also some at central Israel.

The airstrikes were carried out shortly before Hezbollah intended to launch its attack at around 5 a.m.
