Since Israeli authorities evacuated border towns when the conflict in Gaza and with Hezbollah escalated, there were no civilians in Arav al-Aramshe. However, according to Israeli media, there is still a military presence there.
The town of Arav al-Aramshe is located just a few miles away from the border with Lebanon, According to Hezbollah, they were targeting a building used by the Israel Defense Forces. This is the first time in a while that the Hezbollah terrorist group managed to successfully inflict harm. Hezbollah bombings in northern Israel are almost a daily occurrence.
According to the IDF, part of the anti-missile warning system did not work. Because of this, the alarms did not sound during the attack. Israeli forces carried out some attacks against Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon a few hours earlier.
