The IDF attacked a series of targets of the terrorist organization Hezbollah in five different areas in southern Lebanon/IDF Spokesman
IDF officers commented today (Wednesday) on the growing vigilance in the army against Hezbollah attacks on Air Force military infrastructure in the Mount Miron area: "The mountain cannot be moved, and on the other hand, it is also not possible to add too many defenses in the area so as not to harm military activity.
There are limitations." Following the shooting from Lebanon that damaged the infrastructure of the air force base on the mountain, the officers reveal that the air force has made improvements in the defense of the mountain, which have proven to be effective: "The fact that no significant damage was caused and no soldier was injured yesterday is the result of correct thinking and renewed preparation in the face of a threat NET in direct formation".
At the same time, the Air Force increased its efforts to locate Hezbollah terrorist squads in southern Lebanon in a defined area from which missiles are launched.
The preparation includes increasing intelligence gathering and cooperation with the Northern Command.
"There is no 100% in the defense. What is important is that no soldiers were injured and the IDF's competence was not harmed," explained an Air Force officer.
A target was attacked on the other side, and if they continue to shoot, they will continue to suffer damage to critical infrastructures."
