Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed at the government meeting in the Kirya in Tel Aviv the preemptive strike carried out by Israel against Hezbollah early Sunday morning.
“Hezbollah tried to attack the State of Israel with rockets and drones early in the morning. We instructed the IDF to carry out a powerful preemptive strike to remove the threat,” Netanyahu noted.
‘A powerful preemptive strike’
He added, “The IDF destroyed thousands of short-range rockets, and they were all intended to harm our citizens and our forces in the Galilee. In addition, the IDF intercepted all the drones that Hezbollah launched” towards “the center of the country.”
He further added, “Nasrallah in Beirut and Khamenei in Tehran should know that this is another step on the way to change the situation in the North, and return our residents safely to their homes.”
He reiterated that this was “not the end of the story.”
On early Sunday morning, the IDF carried out a preemptive strike against Hezbollah targets, which included launchers that were ready to fire at Israel at 5 a.m. towards areas such as Tel Aviv and central Israel.
