Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that the Israeli army is ready to give an “extremely powerful” response to the attacks of “Hezbollah” from Lebanon, the number of which has greatly increased in recent days. This is reported by The Times of Israel.
“If someone thinks that they can harm us, and we will sit idly by, then they are terribly mistaken,” Netanyahu said during his visit to the city of Kiryat Shmona on the border with Lebanon.
Due to the shelling of “Hezbollah”, large fires broke out in Kiryat Shmona, which firefighters extinguished for about 48 hours. Netanyahu visited the given area a few hours after the fire extinguishing works.
IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi announced on June 4 that the country will soon decide how to respond to Hezbollah’s daily attacks, which the group says are in response to Israel’s military operations in the Gaza Strip.
After the invasion of the militants of the radical Palestinian movement Hamas on October 7, Israel started retaliatory military operations in the Palestinian enclave. During this period, clashes also occur on the border between Lebanon and Israel. About 60,000 residents were displaced from the northern regions of Israel. Tens of thousands of residents were also displaced from the south of Lebanon.
