The Israeli government has declared a state of emergency across the entire country as tensions with Hezbollah in Lebanon continue to escalate. The decision follows intensified conflict between Israel and the militant group, which had previously led to a state of emergency only in northern Israel.
According to reports from Israeli media, the emergency status will remain in effect until September 30. The declaration allows for restrictions on the size of public gatherings and other measures as necessary to maintain security. However, the Israeli military has yet to issue any new specific instructions in response to the expanded emergency status.
The move reflects growing concerns over the potential for further escalation in the conflict with Hezbollah, as both sides continue to engage in military operations. The declaration of a nationwide state of emergency underscores the broader impact the conflict is having across Israel.
