Truth and understanding
The Media Line's intrepid correspondents are in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Pakistan providing first-person reporting.
They all said they cover it.
We see it.
We report with just one agenda: the truth.
A firefight broke out between IDF soldiers and Palestinians during the operation, as well as clashes throughout the city, which led the Israeli forces to use riot dispersal methods. No Israeli security forces were injured in the operation; an Israel National Counter-Terrorism Canine Unit dog, Zili, was killed.
“The neutralizing of the terrorist Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi is another step in our uncompromising fight against terrorism,” Prime Minister Yair Lapid said in a statement.
