IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari conducted a briefing focused on security forces' preparations for the Passover holiday.

Hagari stated that during the holiday, the Home Front Department's instructions for the population will remain unchanged.

"IDF forces are deployed along all of Israel's borders. Even during the holiday, it's crucial to remain vigilant and follow the instructions of the Home Front Command," Hagari emphasized.

He underscored that the IDF continues its efforts to secure the release of Israelis kidnapped and held in the Gaza Strip.

"To the abductees, if you can hear us: we will persist until your safe return home."

Regarding the situation on the northern borders, Daniel Hagari stated, "We are committed to confronting Hezbollah and pushing them northward, allowing residents of border settlements to return to their homes."
