IDF: Last night (Wednesday), during a special IDF operation based on prior intelligence, a structure in the area of Houla in southern Lebanon was dismantled. The structure was used by the Hezbollah terrorist organization for military activity, including attempts to gather intelligence on IDF troops.
The terrorists’ activity in the structure constituted a clear violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.
The structure was also the residence of Ahmad Ghazi Ali, a Hezbollah terrorist who was eliminated last week in the same area after he was identified attempting to re-establish Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure in the area.
The IDF will continue to operate to eliminate any threat posed to the civilians of the state of Israel.

IDF: Overnight (Thursday), Israeli civilians attempted to enter Nablus from several areas without coordination and in violation of the law. IDF soldiers closed off entries to Nablus and operated to disperse the gatherings.
Additionally, several Israeli civilians entered the site of Joseph's Tomb in Nablus, and a violent confrontation developed between them and Palestinian civilians in the area.
All civilians were evacuated from the area and will be transferred by the IDF to the Israel Police for further questioning.
We emphasize that the entry of Israeli civilians to Area A is dangerous and is prohibited by law.

IDF: A short while ago, IAF fighter jets struck a site used by the Hezbollah terrorist organization to manage its fire and defense array in the area of the Beaufort Ridge in southern Lebanon.
This site is part of a significant underground project that was completely taken out of use following IDF strikes. The IDF identified rehabilitation attempts made by Hezbollah beforehand and struck terror infrastructure sites in the area.
The presence of this site and the attempts to re-establish it constitute a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.
The IDF will not allow attempts made by Hezbollah to operate at the site and will continue to operate to eliminate any threat against the State of Israel.

IDF: Yesterday (Thursday), a discussion was held led by the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Eyal Zamir, during which the updated combat timeline for regular and reserve troops was approved, in accordance with the operational situational assessment.
During the discussion, several decisions were made regarding ongoing preparedness, adjusting the timeline to the operational needs in the various arenas, and taking into account the burden placed on service members after approximately 20 months of combat.
In accordance with the updated timeline, revised call-up notices were sent to reservists via the automated calling system.
The IDF conducts ongoing situational assessments in order to examine possible relief measures for reservists. The IDF is aware of the implications of the short notice period and understands the complexities faced by service members and their families; however, it is important to emphasize that this stems from operational necessity.
The IDF deeply appreciates the reservists and their families, who serve with dedication and sacrifice, and expresses profound gratitude for their significant contribution to the security of the state.
In light of the deployment of reserve forces during the summer months, the Personnel Directorate has formulated a personalized support plan that includes subsidized summer camps, babysitting services for children, and recreational events for the families of service members. This is in addition to the broader support framework that has been in place and is continuously updated since the beginning of the war.

IDF: The IDF is operating to allow and facilitate the distribution of humanitarian aid by the American “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” (GHF), and to secure the routes leading to the distribution centers, in order to allow the aid to reach the civilians rather than Hamas. These efforts are taking place alongside the IDF’s ongoing operational activities throughout the Gaza Strip.
We strongly reject the accusation raised in the article - the IDF did not instruct the forces to deliberately shoot at civilians, including those approaching the distribution centers. To be clear, IDF directives prohibit deliberate attacks on civilians.
As part of the operational activity in the access routes to the distribution centers, IDF forces are conducting systematic learning processes aimed at improving the operational response in the area and minimizing, as much as possible, potential friction between the civilian population and IDF forces. As part of this effort, IDF forces have recently taken steps to reorganize the area, including the installation of new fencing, signage, the opening of additional routes, and more.
In light of recent reports of incidents of harm to the civilians approaching the distribution centers, the incidents are being examined by the relevant IDF authorities. Any allegation of a deviation from the law or IDF directives will be thoroughly examined, and further action will be taken as necessary. The allegations of deliberate fire toward civilians presented in the article are not recognized in the field.

IDF: The Chief of the General Staff in the Gaza Strip: “Iran has taken a heavy blow. There is a possibility that the strike on Iran will advance our objectives in Gaza. In the near future, we will reach the lines we defined for the current phase within the framework of operation ‘Gideon’s Chariots.’ From there, operational options will be developed and presented to the political echelon. We will continue to act with determination in order to achieve the two main objectives of the war — the return of the hostages and the defeat of Hamas.”

IDF: Following the IDF strikes this morning (Friday) on a site used to manage Hezbollah's fire and defense array in southern Lebanon, reports emerged that a civilian structure in the Nabatieh area was damaged.
A review indicates that as a result of the strike, a rocket belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization that was stored at the site, was launched and hit the civilian building.
The Hezbollah terrorist organization continues to endanger the residents of southern Lebanon by refusing to hand over its weapons to the state.
The re-establishment of Hezbollah's infrastructure and the presence of weapons held by the organization within Lebanese territory constitute a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.
Accordingly, the Lebanese Armed Forces are expected to act to confiscate rockets and weaponry from Hezbollah.
Attached is footage of the rocket launch following the strike on the site: https://bit.ly/3ZVkzTb

IDF: The Chief of the General Staff communicated today with the Battalion Commander of the 7114th Battalion, COL G, and the Commander of the Binyamin Regional Brigade, COL A.
The Chief of the General Staff emphasized his full support for the conduct and operations of the battalion and the brigade, and strongly condemned any harm directed at IDF soldiers, including reservists who are serving with dedication and personal sacrifice.
Last night (Friday), the battalion operated to disperse Israeli civilians who had entered a closed military zone near the village of Kafr Malik and violently assaulted the security forces.
The IDF and its soldiers face many challenges. The undermining of the rule of law and the use of violence by a radical minority harm security and stability in the area.
The Chief of the General Staff expressed his appreciation for the battalion, which reported for a third round of reserve duty, and for its continued operations in the Binyamin Regional Brigade over this period.
