Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Sunday that Israel had delivered significant strikes against Hezbollah following a night of heavy cross-border fire and recent escalations in Lebanon.
“In recent days, we have struck Hezbollah in ways they could not have anticipated,” Netanyahu said in a statement. “If they haven’t understood the message yet, they certainly will.”
He emphasized that no nation should have to endure attacks on its citizens or cities, adding, “Israel will not tolerate such assaults.” Netanyahu also pledged to ensure that residents displaced from northern Israel due to the ongoing conflict would be able to return to their homes.
