01 · THE DISPATCH

The IDF advanced into central Hadatha in southern Lebanon on Wednesday evening, according to Israeli media reports. Troops are using bulldozers to demolish homes that are suspected of containing Hezbollah infrastructure. Shortly after the advance, the Israeli Air Force intercepted several rockets fired toward the soldiers operating in the area; additional rockets landed nearby. No injuries were reported, and sirens were not activated in accordance with protocol.

Separately, a Maariv report indicates that the Israeli government has instructed the IDF to continue developing target banks for possible new rounds of escalation, as it expects U.S.-Iran negotiations to collapse. This preparation is taking place despite Israeli officers not having read the terms of the still-unpublished diplomatic framework.

The Home Front Command's defensive guidelines remain unchanged and are in effect until Saturday, June 20, at 9:00 PM.
