JERUSALEM, Israel – Israel announced Monday that it is ramping up its attacks against Hezbollah's stockpile of Russian-made missiles in Lebanon. It follows a weekend rocket barrage against northern Israel and reprisal strikes by the Israel Air Force.

Early Monday, Israel Defense Forces issued a statement saying it's doing everything in its power to warn Lebanese civilians to get away from homes and buildings where DR-3 Cruise missiles are located.

It read, "The IDF will engage in extensive, precise strikes against terror targets which have been embedded widely throughout Lebanon. We advise civilians from Lebanese villages located in and next to buildings in areas used by Hezbollah for military purposes, such as those used to store weapons to immediately move out of harm's way for their own safety."
