""The many achievements of the War of Rebirth, the extraordinary successes in Iran, Lebanon, Gaza and Syria, and of course - the heroism of our fighters in the air, on land and at sea - all of these are very reminiscent of the Six-Day War.
Between the conquest of the Golan Heights in the Six-Day War and the control of Mount Hermon in the War of Rebirth, a clear line of commitment and sacrifice connects. Just as the Six-Day War brought with it historic opportunities, so too these days we truly have historic opportunities to change the regional reality.
Iran has suffered extremely severe blows in the past year, blows that have set it back years in all areas.
And yet - our mission is not over: we must complete the campaign objectives in a way that ensures that Iran will never again be a threat to the existence of Israel, the United States, and the free world - for generations to come. As I have said before: We are prepared for the possibility that we may soon be required to act again to ensure the realization of these objectives.
At the same time, we are, as you know, in a campaign against the terrorist organization Hezbollah in Lebanon - which has set itself the goal of threatening and harming the residents of the north and destroying the State of Israel. Hezbollah has suffered extremely severe blows over the past two and a half years, and also during "Operation Roar of the Lion". The houses in the first line of villages that were used for terrorist activity are being destroyed at this very moment. "Aita a-Shaab - they were.".
Hundreds of thousands of Shiite residents were evacuated from their homes for their own protection and are now refugees in their own country - and will not return until Hezbollah disarms. Here too, we must complete the task to ensure the removal of the threat to the residents of the north and to the entire State of Israel.
We are well aware of the drone threat. Yesterday we held another discussion among many we have already held on the subject. Alongside solutions that have already been implemented in the field, there are a number of additional solutions, technological and operational, and the entire security establishment is mobilized for the benefit of the matter.
"I also wish a speedy recovery to the civilians who were hit today by an explosive drone in Rosh Hanikra. Hezbollah will pay the full price. We promised security to the residents of the north, and that is what we will do.".
