I was pretty surprised to hear this too. It was also reported that some citizens were being evacuated by boat yesterday and IDF called whomever was in charge of the evac and said they were bombing the harbor within the hour. I don't understand the urgency.

IDF might very well have been stopping some Hez from slipping out. We only hear what the media reports, not (and rightfully so) IDF intelligence. At least they let the one shipload out and gave fair warning before firing.

That's a good point.

Why would the Hezzies be slipping out of the harbor when they can walz across the Syrian border? More likely that the IDF was hitting Hezzies trying to sabatoge one of the cruise ships, don't you think.
