The northern front is heating up. Since last Saturday, 5 soldiers and officers have been killed at the northern border in clashes with militants and anti-tank missile fire. Additionally, militants are firing mortar shells and rockets towards northern Galilee, attempting to open another front against the IDF while it's engaged in the conflict in the south.
The IDF does not contain the events. Earlier this Sabbath, IDF aircraft, artillery, and tanks targeted a number of targets belonging to the terrorist organization Hezbollah in Lebanese territory.
An IDF spokesperson stated that "the attack was carried out in response to the launches toward the territory of the State of Israel earlier today."
In one of the attacks, a Reuters photographer was killed in southern Lebanon.
