Israel has launched a pre-emptive attack against Iran-backed Hezb’Allah in Lebanon. Israel detected preparations by the terrorist organization Hezb’Alah to launch missiles and rockets at the State of Israel so they are attacking proactively to remove the threat.
According to a Western intelligence official, Israel’s preemptive strike targeted missile launchers in Lebanon that were set to fire towards Tel Aviv at 5 a.m. The official confirmed that all targeted launchers were successfully destroyed, and Israel is now bracing for a strong retaliation from Hezbollah, reports the New York Times.
Reports indicate that hundreds of Israeli airstrikes are hitting Hezbollah positions throughout southern Lebanon.
The war has started..
CNN: Hezbollah is believed to be the most heavily armed non-state group in the world. Backed by Iran and based in the eastern Mediterranean country of Lebanon, the Shia Islamist group has been engaged in confrontations with Israeli forces on Lebanon’s southern border since October 8.
As of 0700 Israel time, here is where we stand: Hezbollah had thousands of rockets, missiles, and drones aimed at targets in Israel, including 100-150 ballistic missiles specifically for Tel Aviv. These were supposed to be launched at 0500, but Israel struck first.
Since then,…

There are reports of many fires and explosions in northern Israel as Hezbollah’s massive attack continues. The IDF is continuing to targets Hezbollah sites in Lebanon.
Ben Gurion airport is closed and Israel has declared a national state of emergency.
This is what Biden/Harris wrought. Nightmare. Pray for Israel.

The Israeli military says it identified overnight preparations in Hezbollah’s rocket array for a major and immediate attack on Israel. Fighter jets are now working to remove the threat.
The preemptive strikes specifically targeted the sites that would have been used in the attack from southern Lebanon.
The IDF believes the attack would have been part of Hezbollah’s response to the killing of the terror group’s military commander Fuad Shukr last month.
The IDF is tracking other parts of Hezbollah, and is readying for potential drone and even missile attacks on the country.
Meanwhile, residents of all northern border communities and the Golan Heights have been ordered by the IDF to stay near bomb shelters and avoid unnecessary movements and gatherings, as a precaution for a possible Hezbollah attack. Agricultural work in the area has also been halted.

Many cities in central Israel have just opened their bomb shelters. We are on high alert, not just because of Hezbollah but from other fronts as well. My wife’s niece has just told me that they have removed her and everyone else from the planes and all flights have been canceled.

IDF launches preventative attack against Hezbollah, sirens in northern Israel
Israeli Air Force fighter jets striking targets belonging to Hezbollah that posed an imminent threat to the citizens of the State of Israel. Sirens sounded in the north.
By: Israel National News,. August 24, 2024;
IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari: We launched a preventative attack against HezbollahIDF Spokesperson’s Unit
Israeli Air Force fighter jets are currently striking targets belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization that posed an imminent threat to the citizens of the State of Israel, IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari said early Sunday morning.
Following the strikes, and in accordance with the IDF Home Front Command’s situational assessment, life-saving guidelines for the public in certain areas of Israel will be published.
“A short while ago, the IDF identified the Hezbollah terrorist organization preparing to fire missiles and rockets toward Israeli territory,” said Hagari.
“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. This follows more than 6,700 rockets, missiles, and explosive UAVs fired by Hezbollah at Israeli families, homes, and communities since October 8th.”
“Hezbollah will soon fire rockets, and possibly missiles and UAVs, towards Israeli territory. We will shortly update the Home Front Command Defensive guidelines for those in Israel,” continued the IDF Spokesperson.
“From right next to the homes of Lebanese civilians in the South of Lebanon, we can see that Hezbollah is preparing to launch an extensive attack on Israel, while endangering the Lebanese civilians. We warn the civilians located in the areas where Hezbollah is operating, to move out of harm’s way immediately for their own safety,” he stated.
“Hezbollah’s ongoing aggression risks dragging the people of Lebanon, the people of Israel- and the whole region- into a wider escalation. Israel will not tolerate Hezbollah’s attacks on our civilians,” Hagari made clear.
“We are operating in self defense from Hezbollah – and any other enemy that joins in their attacks against us- and we are ready to do everything we need to defend the people of Israel.”
The preventive action against Hezbollah was approved in discussions that took place overnight. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant are in the Kirya base in Tel Aviv. The security cabinet will convene on Sunday morning at 7:00 a.m.
Hezb’Allah are capable of striking all of Israel
The Iran-backed group boasts missiles with a range of up to 500km.

Since October 7th, Hezbollah, the Iranian-Backed Lebanese terror organization, has been firing more the 8,000 rockets against Israel, displacing up to 65,000 Israelis from their homes.

The Hezbollah terror organization in Lebanon is far stronger and better armed than Hamas in Gaza.
Hezbollah has an arsenal of around 200,000 rockets, missiles and unmanned drones, many of which are highly sophisticated and carry large payloads.
Like Hamas, Hezbollah intends to…

This is long overdue.

UPDATE:
We are now learning that some of the Hezbollah targets were supposed to be the Kirya, Ben Gurion Airport, and the power station in Hadera, among other strategic and civilian targets. Is this not enough for a war? Time to wake up.

Hezbollah stopped its fire on Israel because, for the moment, they are unable to continue to do so.
Israel has destroyed hundreds of Hezbollah launchers.
Imagine the attack size If Israel hadn’t preemptively struck over 150 sites this morning.
