Hattip Grom the Reflective in comments yesterday. [Jpost] Two soldiers were wounded during combat, a combat officer from the Military Engineering School, and a reservist from Battalion 9203.
The Israel Air Force and IDF conducted several interceptions and strikes following alerts in the Galilee and Ashkelon areas, the IDF reported throughout Yom Kippur.
At around 10 a.m. on Saturday, a rocket launched from Leb
...an Iranian satrapy until recently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
toward the Central Galilee was successfully intercepted, as were multiple rockets, also launched from Lebanon, toward the Upper Galilee, an hour later, the IDF said.
Hezbollah finds themselves in a use it or lose it situation, I think, even if they don’t want to shoot off enough all at once to trigger Israel to get really, really serious in their direction. Hamas ditto. The IDF noted that shortly after 12 p.m. on Saturday, they identified approximately 30 more rockets crossing from Lebanon toward the Galilee, some of which they intercepted; however, they reported some hits. Two more rockets, intercepted almost an hour later, crossed from Lebanon.
Close to 5 p.m., around 16 more launches from Lebanon were detected in the Upper Galilee; some were intercepted, and impacts were reported in the area. Finally, the IDF reported that two rockets launched from the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
Strip toward Ashkelon fell in open areas without causing any harm.
Furthermore, the Israel Air Force intercepted two drones launched from Lebanon that did not enter Israeli airspace.Alerts sounded in all incidents. When the alerts sounded on Saturday, Israeli media reported that 12 people sustained minor injuries while heading to a protected area, while the blast wave from a rocket falling in the Western Galilee lightly injured three others.
In response to the attacks during the solemn fast day, the IDF targeted approximately 280 terror targets in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, including tunnels, weapon storage facilities, and rocket launch sites aimed at Israel.

Additionally, the IDF eliminated around 50 Hezbollah fighters in southern Lebanon while uncovering weapons and other equipment belonging to the terrorist organization.
In Gaza, IDF forces neutralized over 200 terrorists. In Jabalya, more than 20 bully boyz were eliminated through a combination of tank fire, close combat, and Arclight airstrike

s by the 162nd Division. In the central Gaza Strip, the 252nd Division eliminated several terrorist groups involved in anti-tank attacks, while in Rafah, the IDF’s Gaza Division forces took out additional bully boyz who were targeting IDF soldiers.
During these operations, the IAF destroyed rocket and missile launchers in southern Lebanon and hit an underground Hezbollah site near the Syria-Lebanon border. Targets included underground terrorist facilities, weapon storage, command centers, terrorist cells, and military sites linked to Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas
 ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
