The IDF announced that the ceremony meant to commemorate the fallen of the Golani Brigade today (Wednesday) is cancelled and will be held at another time, due to "operational reasons."
This announcement comes as the 98th Division is being transferred from the Gaza area to the north, as the mass beeper explosion has greatly escalated tensions with Hezbollah.
Defense Minister Gallant has already held a situational assessment with IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi and the IDF Spokesperson has said that at least for now, there are no new instructions in terms of civilian defense or sheltering.
The government approved the returning of northern residents to their homes as one of Israel's war aims a few days ago, greatly increasing the possibility of war in the near future.
In an entirely unsurprising development, Hamas strongly condemned the mass explosion of Hamas pagers, calling it "Zionist terrorist aggression."
In their statement, the terrorist organization said that "We ... strongly condemn the Zionist terrorist aggression that targeted Lebanese citizens by detonating communication devices in various areas of Lebanese territory," also damning the alleged failure to distinguish between fighters and civilians.
