Defence Minister Yoav Gallant met with military officials at the Lebanon border today, his office states. 

IDF Announces that in the past week, battalion exercises were conducted in the Northern Command in preparation for a possible conflict in the north. Deputy Commander of the 226th Brigade: "After this week, I can say with a whole heart - we are ready."

The northern front heats up again. An Aircraft fired a missile at a vehicle traveling in Kafra, Lebanon - Several kilometers north of the northern border at the Shtula area. The identity of the target has not yet been clarified.

IDF Spokesperson's Update: Earlier tonight, an IDF patrol in the Mount Dov region encountered a group of infiltrators crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory. The force engaged in direct contact, resulting in the elimination of four infiltrators.

Daniel Nachmani was injured during an operational activity in the northern borders of the country about four days ago, today the IDF released to the publication that he died of his wounds.

The IDF completed an extensive wave of attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanese territory, when a terrorist squad that tried to launch anti-tank missiles at Israel was attacked. Two fighters were moderately injured and several others were slightly injured.

Alarms were sounded in the settlements of the conflict line in the Galilee following a suspected infiltration of a hostile aircraft. At the same time it was reported that IDF forces attacked in southern Lebanon.

A week of peace on the Lebanese border was broken when a red alert was sounded in the Matat and Sasa settlements. Iron Dome launched two interceptors at a suspicious aircraft. Home Front Command: "The incident is over."

Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi met with the heads of the authorities in the north and said: "We will plan together with the heads of the authorities the return of the residents and its timing, through dialogue and with the understanding that we will not be able to return to the reality that existed here before the war"

Under the auspices of the cease-fire, Hezbollah is rehabilitating the outposts that were hit by IDF fire. Fighters say: "Until Friday, we did not see a Hezbollah terrorist within binocular range. Now they are openly driving in front of us and are not stopping."

The Minister of Defense visited the northern border and noted that over 100 Hezbollah terrorists had been eliminated and that the terrorist organization had retreated deep into the territory. On the fighting in the south: "We will return to hit Hamas at the end of the truce."

For five weeks now, the IDF's activity in the north has been limited to reactionary fire and preventive fire. When tens of thousands of residents have been evacuated from their homes and the conflict line is shut down, this ping pong game against Hezbollah is a loss. Where is the creativity?
