Occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu affirmed that Tel Aviv will not tolerate any attempts by Lebanese Hezbollah to target the interior, residential areas, or military bases. He explained in press statements that the army's field movements will be directly linked to developments on the ground, emphasizing readiness to deal with all escalation scenarios on the northern front.
In the context of ground operations in southern Lebanon, Netanyahu revealed that field forces found massive underground facilities and infrastructure in the Beaufort Castle area. Sources indicated that these fortifications belong to Hezbollah and extend for long distances, reflecting the scale of military preparations that were made in that strategic area near the border.
Regarding the ongoing aggression in the Gaza Strip, the head of the occupation government stated that the army continues to tighten its grip on the Hamas movement at an accelerating pace through various combat axes. Netanyahu claimed that Israeli forces currently exercise effective control over about half of the Strip's area, considering military pressure as the primary means to achieve the declared war objectives.
Netanyahu also expected that the area of military control in Gaza would expand to reach 70% of the total area in the near future, amid continued offensive operations. These statements come at a time when the region is witnessing escalating tensions, amidst reports of continuous breaches and targeting of civilians in various areas of military operations.
Our forces currently control 50% of the total area of the Gaza Strip, and ongoing operations will soon reach 70%.
