A massive rocket attack occurred a while ago in southern and central Israel.

War sirens they sounded in particular, in central and southern Israel including Tel-Aviv.

Earlier, the Israeli military announced that it was preparing to launch large-scale operational attack plans.

Plans include combined and coordinated air, sea and land strikes.

Israeli military forces deployed across the country are enhancing operational readiness for the next stages of the war, with an emphasis on major ground operations.

It is worth noting that Israel Prime Minister’s National Security Adviser Zahi Hanegbi stated that Israel did not receive a specific notification from Egypt or anywhere else about the October 7 attack by Hamas targeting Gaza.

The head of Israel’s internal security services, the Shin Bet, was summoned for an emergency briefing at 04:00, two and a half hours before the attack began, on new intelligence evidence, but it did not warrant mobilization, Zahi Hanegbi told reporters.

Israeli military spokesman Peter Lerner earlier said the bodies of some Israelis abducted during the attack by the Palestinian militant group Hamas were found on the outskirts of the Gaza Strip, without elaborating.

Indeed, he mentioned that there is a possibility that terrorists have infiltrated the territory of Israel.

“We are neutralizing the Hamas organization, the leaders, everyone – from the first to the last,” he said, adding that “We are determined to remove this terror forever, Hamas will never again be able to use the territory of Gaza to launch attacks on Israel”.

He pointed out that Hamas, which in any case continues to fire rockets, is in a state of disarray and has hidden in the tunnels

In fact, according to haaretz, IDF aircraft attacked a unit of terrorists who attempted to infiltrate Israeli territory during the mortar shelling in the northern area of ​​Mount Dov.

The IDF spokesman said about 30 mortar shells were fired into Israeli territory.

At the same time, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s national security adviser admitted during a press conference today that his statement a few days before the Hamas attack on Israel that the deterrence of an attack by Hamas was working was error.

“That was wrong,” he said, adding that the miscalculation was shared by Israel’s intelligence services as a whole. “There is no doubt that the State of Israel has not fulfilled its mission,” said Zahi Hanegbi.

Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Israeli soldiers deployed outside the Gaza Strip, his office announced, releasing a video of the meeting.

The terror group’s surprise raid on Saturday in southern Israel killed hundreds of Israelis, mostly civilians.

Netanyahu is heard asking the soldiers: “Are you ready for the next stage? The next stage is coming.”
