May The Memories Of Our Soldiers and Citizen Be For A Blessing

In addition to those killed since the beginning of the ground operation Lebanon, the IDF announced today that 910 soldiers have been wounded in Lebanon–140 of whom are now in rehabilitation.

On the Ground in the North

After taking control of many villages in south Lebanon, clearing the area of terorists, and finding huge amounts of weapons, the IDF has begun operations to create a buffer zone by blocking roads leading north to Shi’ite villages.

On the Ground in the South

The most unusual event of the day has been the drone attack on Ashkelon. Where the drone came from has been the subject of much debate within the IDF with Iraq first mentioned as the likely source, but now Yemen being named.

This is the first time that any drone attack has struck any southern coastal city.
