In a self-defense act to remove these threats, the IDF is striking terror targets in Lebanon, from which Hezbollah was planning to launch their attacks on Israeli civilians.
Hezbollah has said that it carried out the 'first phase' of a planned attack on Israel in response to the killing of Fuad Shukr, one of the group’s top commanders.
Israel’s Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant, responded by declaring a 48-hour state of emergency across the nation, amid fears of an all-out war with Hezbollah.
Gallant said that Israel would seek to avoid 'regional escalation' and that Israel would work with the US 'to ensure Israel’s defense as well as regional stability.'
