Israeli Army
The Israeli Army, officially known as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), is the military force of the State of Israel, established in 1948. It is known for its advanced technology and has played a critical role in Israel's defense and military operations throughout its history, particularly in conflicts with neighboring countries and groups such as Hezbollah. The IDF has been in the news recently for its involvement in regional tensions, specifically for warning against the use of civilian aircraft for smuggling weapons and for threatening to bomb Beirut's airport in response to the Iranian government's actions related to Hezbollah.
