The Hezbollah terrorist organization launched projectiles today (Wednesday) toward Israeli territory for the second time since the morning, with launches crossing from Lebanese territory.<\/p>\n
This morning, after the area had experienced a full day of quiet, sirens were activated around the community of Manara and inside the city of Kiryat Shmona.<\/p>\n
The Israeli Air Force successfully intercepted an unmanned aerial vehicle launched by Hezbollah toward Israeli territory.<\/p>\n
Several hours later, additional sirens were activated in the area of Misgav Am. The Air Force acted once again and successfully intercepted two projectiles that crossed from Lebanon into Israel.<\/p>\n
The launches by Hezbollah came after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu halted a planned Israeli strike in Beirut at the request of U.S. President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
At the same time, Prime Minister Netanyahu made Israel\u2019s position unequivocally clear this week, saying:<\/p>\n
\u201cIf Hezbollah does not stop attacking our cities and our civilians, Israel will strike terrorist targets in Beirut.”<\/p>\n
Netanyahu\u2019s strong remarks came after Trump announced a ceasefire in Lebanon. President Trump referred to the diplomatic efforts and stated: \u201cI had a very good conversation with Bibi Netanyahu. There will be no soldiers going to Beirut. There was also a very good conversation with Hezbollah – they agreed that all firing would stop, that Israel would not attack them and they would not attack Israel.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Hezbollah terrorist organization launched projectiles today (Wednesday) toward Israeli territory for the second time since the morning,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":474562,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[33437,86,12274,1031,85,46,88,43],"class_list":["post-474561","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-beirut","tag-hezbollah","tag-iaf","tag-idf","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-lebanon","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474561","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=474561"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474561\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/474562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=474561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=474561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=474561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
