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
