The Israeli military has issued a warning for residents in more than 20 villages in Lebanon, urging them to evacuate to avoid potential attacks. Avichay Adraee stated that while the IDF does not intend to cause harm, it must take strong actions against Hezbollah due to its activities. People in the affected areas are advised to prioritize their safety by leaving their homes, and they are cautioned not to head south, as doing so could endanger their lives.
Adraee emphasized that anyone near Hezbollah’s elements, installations, or combat equipment is at risk, and homes utilized by Hezbollah for military purposes are likely to be targeted. The message concludes with the assurance that the IDF will inform residents when it is safe for them to return.
How much damage did Iran’s missile attack on Israel cause?
Iran’s missile attack on Israel on Tuesday involved the firing of over 180 ballistic missiles, including hypersonic Fattah missiles. While the Revolutionary Guards claimed that 90% of their missiles hit their targets, the Israeli government maintained that most were intercepted by its air defense systems, a statement supported by US and UK defense officials.
Reports indicated that no injuries occurred in Israel, though one person was killed in the occupied West Bank, where some missiles landed, specifically in Ramallah. There were confirmed instances of damage, including a heavily damaged school in Gadera, as shown in videos released by the Israeli military. Overall, the IDF’s Daniel Hagari noted that there were only “a small number” of successful hits on targets in Israel.
