A corresponding friend of mine wrote me:
— IDF SURPRISE ATTACK… “Shield and Arrow” - A few hours ago the IDF attacked Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) leadership in Gaza, bombing and killing 3 top leaders, naming the operation Shield and Arrow. An additional 10 sites were bombed in Gaza per the IDF.
— IDF HOME FRONT COMMAND… has declared an emergency situation within 40 km of the Gaza Strip. All outdoor activities are canceled.
— IDF RESERVES… Defense Minister Gallant has approved the call up of reserves
— GAZA CROSSINGS… Erez and Keren Shalom crossings are closed.
— BEN GURION…. Flights to Ben Gurion Airport were re-routed farther north to avoid risk of rocket fire. (None yet.)
— HEZBOLLAH…. In Lebanon, Hezbollah has stated it is mobilizing.
— ROCKETS? None so far, the funerals for the killed PIJ leaders are scheduled for right after noon prayers. Likely then?
…updates as they become available.
ISRAEL REALTIME defense/security updates
—
SHECHEM (Nablus)… Situation escalating? “Reports on helicopters and
helicopters participating in the activity in Nablus. Mosques calling on
fighters confront the IDF. According to the Arab reports, such a
large amount of forces has not been seen in Shechem for many months.
Dozens of armed men are involved in shooting against IDF forces.”
—
PIJ KILLED LEADERS WERE HEADING TO EGYPT? According to reports, the
three individuals have been in hiding for the past few days out of fear
of assassination. They have recently resurfaced to join a delegation of
political bureau members from the Islamic Jihad, to attend a convention
of the movement's elected officials from outside the Gaza Strip and West
Bank. They emerged from hiding to bid farewell to their families in
their homes after receiving permission from Egypt to leave through the
Rafah crossing to Cairo. However, during this time, they were attacked
and killed.
— JETS OVERHEAD… IDF jets heard loudly overhead in southern Israel. Fly safe, be successful!

My thoughts:
Remember that this occurred on and around La"G laOmer, a very auspicious time for the Final Redemption.

THE BIG QUESTION: Will this be the beginning of the REAL GREAT RESET???
Let's keep praying and preparing ourselves, everybody!
Note that no one has declared it officially, just yet...hopefully we will know shortly, be"H!

Another BIG QUESTION: Are the victories supposed to start in Israel and spread from here? The murder of 4 Jews in Djerba, Tunisia on La"G laOmer makes me ask.
YET ANOTHER BIG QUESTION: When will the Israeli government STOP considering Judea and Samaria as "territories" to be bargained away? What makes me ask this question? A modern Jewish hero in the JUDEAN HILLS was attacked the day before, which I call "Lev laOmer" (ל"ב לעומר, the 32nd* Day of the Omer Count) and left for dead by Arab Muslims. He's in the hospital with major injuries to his skull, hearing and face. The family is asking for donations. They're farmers with goats, and they're losing the major contribution the head of this family makes daily.
His name happens to be Yisrael; I wonder if this means anything.
If the body of this article is a sign of anything, it won't be long before the rest of the world, and even our Leftists, stop demanding that Jews stop living in land that's clearly ours FROM BIBLICAL TIMES. That much, I know!
* I made a mistake there, but it's not the one most people would expect. I really meant the 32nd day of the Omer. Thanks, Neshama. 😉
