Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz have instructed the IDF to carry out strikes on “dozens of terror targets” in Lebanon in response to this morning’s rocket fire on Metula, their offices say.

“The Lebanese government is responsible for everything from its territory. Israel will not allow any harm to its citizens and sovereignty, and will work in every way to ensure the security of Israeli citizens and the northern communities. The IDF is prepared and ready for any command,” the statement says.
