Israeli Military Warns Of Rising Rocket Attacks From Lebanon Ahead Of Cabinet Meeting To Discuss Ceasefire
JAKARTA - The Israeli military warned of an increasing level of rocket fire on Israel from Lebanon, ahead of a cabinet meeting to discuss a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah today.
Israel's military Interior Front Command updated its defense guidelines on Monday night.
"As part of the change, the scale of activity in the confrontation line, North Golan and South Golan will change from partial activity to limited activity," the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said.
The Israeli cabinet will vote on a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah today, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told CNN.
The US-backed proposal aims to achieve a 60-day cessation of hostilities which is expected to form the basis for a lasting ceasefire.
The spokesman did not explain the details of the potential agreement.
