The Israeli Defense Minister spoke this evening (Wednesday) at the Israel Defense Awards ceremony.
""The Middle East is changing before our eyes. These days, we see, with great pride, our heroic fighters operating deep in Lebanon against the terrorist organization Hezbollah, which operates on behalf of the Iranian regime, and inflicting severe blows on its head.".
Yesterday, the IDF evacuated a Christian neighborhood in Tyre and attacked the Hezbollah terrorists who had found shelter there. Of course, now the residents will return to their homes.
We continue to attack Hezbollah terrorists everywhere for the sake of the security of the northern communities and the State of Israel, and we categorically reject Iran's threats and its attempt to link the arenas.
"We must not think that the work is finished - the campaign against Iran is far from over. If Iran attacks Israel - it will suffer a severe blow as we did a few days ago. The IDF is prepared to attack Iran with great force.".
