Since the beginning of the ongoing targeted operation against the Hezbollah terrorist organization, the Israeli Air Force has struck more than 2,000 targets in support of ground forces in southern Lebanon, using fighter jets, combat helicopters, and remotely piloted aircraft.

As part of strengthening joint, multi-domain cooperation, the Commander of the Israeli Air Force, Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar, conducted a situational assessment at the Northern Command alongside the Commanding Officer, Maj. Gen. Rafi Milo. The commanders discussed operational plans moving forward, and Israeli Air Force officers received an updated operational overview of forces on the ground and requirements for the continuation of the operation.
