Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has said military action against Lebanon’s Hezbollah militias “will continue.”
“Hezbollah feels persecuted,” Gallant said after a briefing on operational developments in northern Israel on Thursday, according to his office.
But he added: “The series of our military actions will continue.”
“In the new phase of the war there are important opportunities, but also important risks,” Gallant said.
According to the minister, the talks with senior military and intelligence commanders revolved around various scenarios in the fight against Hezbollah. The aim was to give evacuees from northern Israel the opportunity to return home.
