(Reuters) – Israel’s military announced updates to its Home Front Command’s defensive guidelines on Saturday, raising the alert level in the Lower Galilee and southern Golan regions from “partial” to “full”.
It also eased restrictions in its precautionary guidelines to the public by permitting gatherings of up to 2,000 people in some communities.
The changes follow ongoing hostilities with Hezbollah in Lebanon, which shares its southern border with Israel and has exchanged fire with Israeli forces since October 2023.
