In response to the shooting at Mount Dov: IDF attacks terrorists and dozens of launchers in Lebanon

December 2, 2024   

This evening (Monday), Israeli Air Force fighter jets attacked Hezbollah terrorists, dozens of launchers, and infrastructure of the terrorist organization throughout Lebanon. Wheelchair-accessible intercity buses: How will it work? In addition, fighter jets attacked the launcher from which the two launches towards Mount Dov were carried out in the Barghez area in southern Lebanon - shortly after the shooting. The IDF says: "The shooting this evening towards the State of Israel constitutes a violation of the ceasefire agreement between the State of Israel and the State of Lebanon. The State of Israel demands that the relevant parties in the State of Lebanon implement the understandings and prevent hostile activity by the terrorist organization Hezbollah from its territory. The State of Israel continues to be committed to the understandings reached regarding the ceasefire in Lebanon. "The IDF is prepared to continue attacking as much as necessary, and will continue to act to protect the citizens of the State of Israel." Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the earlier firing at Mount Dov, claiming that it was carried out "following the Israeli enemy's repeated violations of the ceasefire agreement, we carried out an initial defensive response as a warning towards the IDF post on Mount Dov." Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yisrael Katz, and Chief of Staff Herzli Halevi made it clear that any violation of the ceasefire would be met with a harsh response. Netanyahu said: "Hezbollah's firing at Mount Dov constitutes a serious violation of the ceasefire, and Israel will respond to it forcefully. We are determined to continue enforcing the ceasefire, and to respond to any violation by Hezbollah - whether minor or serious." Katz responded: "We promised to act against any violation of the ceasefire by Hezbollah - and that is exactly what we will do. Hezbollah's firing at the IDF post on Mount Dov will be met with a harsh response. "What was will not be." The Chief of Staff said: "We will attack forcefully in the face of Hezbollah's serious violation - and we will continue to do so. We have plans and objectives ready to be activated at any moment.".
