The operation was announced by the Israeli Army (IDF) through a social media post at 4.32 am. Israel has clearly stated that these operations are entirely local and ground strikes have been carried out based on accurate intelligence. The threat to northern Israel is greater because these areas are closer to villages near the border.

The IDF said Israel's air force and IDF artillery were supporting ground forces with attacks on troops in the area. This operation is being carried out due to a political decision.
