The military said no injuries were reported after sirens sounded in several northern areas and a suspicious aerial target later fell near the border.
- On Tuesday, June 2, 2026, the IAF intercepted two projectiles from Lebanon, hours after President Donald Trump announced a de-escalation between Israel and Hezbollah.

- The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps threatened to block Bab Mandeb if Israel continues strikes in Lebanon and Gaza, according to Quds Force Commander Esmail Qaani.
- Nationwide Ultra-Orthodox protests erupted against the arrest of suspected IDF draft evaders, with demonstrators paralyzing key roads and blocking railway tracks, adding domestic pressure to current military operations.
