15 girls crossed into Lebanon - and the IDF warns it will end in disaster

The IDF warns that border crossings by far-right activists have become an almost daily phenomenon and could end in disaster. The military demands that the police and prosecution act decisively against those involved, claiming the police neither investigate nor arrest suspects. An IDF spokesman condemned the incident as a serious disruption to operational activity.

The IDF warns that crossing the border fence in combat zones - Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria - by far-right offenders has become an almost daily phenomenon and could end in disaster. The main concern is an incident involving the killing of Israeli civilians across the border, abduction, or harm to IDF forces operating to return the crossers. The military is frustrated that suspects receive backing from political figures in the government and claims the police are not doing enough: "The police put them on a patrol car and take them to a nearby hitchhiking station. No investigations, no arrests, and certainly no indictments," says a military source. An IDF spokesman issued a harsh statement: "The IDF strongly condemns the incident, which constitutes another case of serious disruption to operational activity and a danger to the security of IDF forces." An officer in the Northern Command said: "Instead of carrying out ambush missions or search operations for terrorist infrastructure, we are forced to chase these rioters." The report details that 15 girls crossed into Lebanon but does not specify the circumstances of the case or their identities.
