In accordance with the directive given by Israel’s Minister of Defense and the political echelon, the IDF via COGAT, in cooperation with the World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF, has completed the second polio vaccination campaign for children in Gaza.

Over recent months, the IDF via COGAT has facilitated the delivery of over 355,000 vials of vaccines against the polio virus – a quantity that is sufficient to vaccinate over 4,800,000 civilians. In addition, 619,332 vials of vaccines against a series of diseases and epidemics have been delivered – a quantity that is sufficient to vaccinate over 5,600,000 civilians.

IDF: The IDF struck Hezbollah targets in the Dahieh area of Beirut

A short while ago, in an intelligence-based strike, the IAF struck command centers, weapons storage facilities, and terrorist infrastructure in the Dahieh area of Beirut.

All of the targets were embedded in the heart of a civilian area, an additional example of Hezbollah’s cynical exploitation of Lebanese civilians as human shields.

Prior to the strikes, numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk to civilians, including using precise munitions, surveillance, and issuing advance warnings to the population in the area.
