The Ma'ale Yosef Regional Council issued a special notice to its residents on Friday afternoon, following an official update from the Northern Command regarding planned Israeli Air Force strikes in the Lebanon sector. The announcement aimed to prepare residents for the sounds of explosions that might be heard during the day, preventing unnecessary panic. According to the council's statement, the anticipated activity is proactive, intended to neutralize threats and target terror infrastructure. Authorities clarified that there is no change in Home Front Command directives and that daily routines should continue, with residents advised to remain alert for further updates. This notification comes amid ongoing IDF operations along the northern border to eliminate immediate threats. The council had previously suspended classes in communities near the border in May due to persistent drone launches by Hezbollah. The IDF continues its operations in southern Lebanon as part of efforts to remove threats to Israeli civilians, conducting targeted strikes against terror infrastructure and operatives who violated the ceasefire. Concurrently, in the northern Gaza Strip, the IDF eliminated a Hamas commander involved in the October 7th attack and another Palestinian Islamic Jihad operative who breached the ceasefire. The IDF stated that forces in the Southern Command are deployed and will continue to act to remove any immediate threats, focusing on preventing the rebuilding of terror capabilities by militant organizations.
