Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to convene a special security discussion on Thursday, attended by the heads of the Shin Bet and Mossad, the Chief of Staff, and other senior defense officials. The meeting will focus on escalating tensions with Iran, the potential for renewed military conflict, and security threats on other fronts. This discussion occurs amid heightened alert in Israel and concerns about a security escalation ahead of the Knesset elections in less than two weeks.

Reports indicate that Iran has instructed Hezbollah to increase its military readiness due to the current situation. An Emirati news outlet, "Al-Aram News," reported Thursday that Iran directed Hezbollah to raise its military alert level in anticipation of a regional conflict that Tehran believes could erupt soon. According to the report, the terrorist organization has begun relocating operatives to new positions and altering its command structure to ensure operational continuity even if Israeli strikes target its leadership.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz toured the eastern border on Thursday, issuing a strong message to Israel's enemies. Netanyahu showcased a new security barrier being constructed from the Yarmouk River to Eilat, addressed plans to counter drone threats, and warned, "Enemies of Israel, do not test us."
