Channel 12: The IDF spokesman made an unusual statement:
Regarding various reports in the Israeli and international media in the last day, with various statements attributed to the Chief of Staff or to the senior army officers, we would like to clarify: the army is focused on its tasks, and is on high alert on each of the fronts, in view of various warnings and in light of the sensitivity of the period.
The operational activity and the considerations taken for the Israeli army are security, professional, objective and official considerations only, and any other talk is misleading and irrelevant.
