IDF: Possible Attacks on Israel Within 24 Hours, New Restrictions on Haifa and North

The IDF on Saturday night, September 21, issued new home front restrictions on Haifa and any part of the country northward in anticipation of a potential large Hezbollah attack, following Israel’s attacks over the weekend against over 400 Hezbollah rocket launchers and many thousands of rockets.

Since Thursday, the military has carried out at least three major waves of attacks, each of which destroyed a hundred or more rocket launchers, including one over Thursday-Friday and two on Saturday.

According to the IDF, these attacks are heavily harming Hezbollah’s ability and attempts to attack Israel. At the same time, the terrorist group still maintains a massive arsenal, including SCUD missiles, other long-range precision rockets that can potentially hit all of Israel, medium-range rockets that can hit Haifa and northward, and short-range rockets and drones that it has used to ravage the Upper Galilee and Golan Heights for nearly a year.

The new home front restrictions mean that from Haifa and northward, gatherings are limited to 30 people outdoors and 300 indoors.

There are no changes southward of Haifa at this time, but this could change at any time based on upcoming Hezbollah attacks. IDF chief spokesman R.-Adm. Daniel Hagari refused to commit either to a full invasion of northern Lebanon imminently or that the IDF would refrain from this. (JPost / VFI News)

“Lord, we pray for protection over our northern border. We pray in Yeshua’s name that You cause our enemies to not pursue any attacks against our nation. We also pray that You guide our soldiers, alert and prepare them to thwart any strikes in all circumstances. We lean on You, cast our anxieties to You, and ask for Your Fatherly protection and care. We thank You for all You do for us and are extremely grateful for our brave soldiers who battle every day for our people. May You protect them and help them return safely.”
