The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have successfully intercepted a surface-to-air missile launched from Lebanese territory, targeting an IDF tank, according to The Jerusalem Post. In response to the missile attack, the Israeli Air Force carried out strikes on the launch site and the group responsible for the launch.
Prior to this incident, IDF forces had already launched attacks on the Shiite organization Hezbollah, located in Lebanon, in retaliation for attacks originating from the country.
According to updated information, on October 7th, over three thousand Hamas militants invaded Israel, accompanied by a massive rocket barrage. More than two hundred hostages were taken. In response, the IDF initiated Operation “Iron Swords,” with the objective of completely eliminating the Hamas movement.
A political analyst previously identified one of the reasons for the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
