IDF issues unusual notice to Northern residents: "Open windows so they don't shatter"
The Northern Command reports that loud explosions will be heard tonight in the Ramim Ridge, Hula Valley, and northern Golan Heights areas. Residents of Metula and Misgav Am are advised to open their windows.
The Northern Command has issued a notice to residents stating that tonight (Thursday), between 23:00 and 01:00, explosions will be heard in the area of the Ramim Ridge, the Hula Valley, and the northern Golan Heights. The Command clarified that there is no change in the security situation assessment.
Given the expected intensity of the explosions, residents of Metula and Misgav Am are requested to open their windows to prevent them from shattering. There are no additional special instructions for other settlements in the area.
Yesterday, an IDF engineering vehicle was damaged by a Hezbollah explosive drone in the Israeli security zone in southern Lebanon, near the Ali al-Tahir ridge north of Beaufort Castle. This marks the first explosive drone launch since the ceasefire began.
There were no casualties in the incident, though the vehicle sustained damage. Dozens of Hezbollah terrorists remain hidden underground in the area, while IDF forces are positioned over tunnel openings and shafts. The IDF is completing its investigation, after which the military and political echelons will determine whether and how to respond to this violation by the terrorist organization.
