“Next Stage in War Against Hezbollah Will Begin Soon” – Israeli Defense Minister

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced that the next phase of Israel’s military campaign against Hezbollah is imminent. During a meeting on Monday with regional leaders from northern Israel, Gallant shared the update while addressing the ongoing security situation along the border with Lebanon.

According to a report by CNN, Gallant emphasized the necessity of engaging Hezbollah to ensure that residents of northern Israel, many of whom have evacuated due to the conflict, can safely return to their homes.

“The next stage in the war against Hezbollah will begin soon. It will be a significant step in changing the security dynamics and will help us achieve a key objective of the war: bringing the residents back to their homes,” Gallant stated.

He further mentioned his recent visits to Israeli forces stationed at the northern border, where he met with military commanders and troops. Gallant expressed confidence in the readiness and strength of the forces, noting their high level of cooperation and preparedness for the upcoming military actions.
