The head of the IDF Northern Command, Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin held an assessment with senior officers in northern Israel earlier today, which the military says is “part of the widening of the fighting” against Hezbollah.

The military says Gordin met with the commanders of the 300th “Baram” and 769th “Hiram” regional brigades, and the commanders of other IDF brigades and units deployed to northern Israel.

“In recent days, the commanders of the divisions and brigades under the Northern Command carried out situation assessments and additional tours in the region, as part of preparations for the widening of the fighting in the area,” the IDF adds.
