        Israel's military announced updates to
        its Home Front Command's defensive guidelines on Saturday,
        raising the alert level in the Lower Galilee and southern Golan
        regions from "partial" to "full".
        
        It also eased restrictions in its precautionary guidelines
        to the public by permitting gatherings of up to 2,000 people in
        some communities.
        
        The changes follow ongoing hostilities with Hezbollah in
        Lebanon, which shares its southern border with Israel and has
        exchanged fire with Israeli forces since October 2023.
