Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced the continuation of military operations against Hezbollah infrastructure in southern Lebanon, while warning Israel's opponents of even more serious consequences in the event of a new attack. Netanyahu stated that the Israeli army will continue to strike Hezbollah targets in what Israel calls a "security zone" in southern Lebanon.
In a video statement, Netanyahu described the latest operations as "another major victory over Hezbollah," claiming that important positions of the organization on the Beaufort and Ali Taher heights had been destroyed.
"We destroyed its main terrorist stronghold in Beaufort Ridge and Ali Taher Ridge," the Israeli prime minister said, presenting the operation as part of efforts to damage Hezbollah's military capabilities in the area.
השגנו אוד מיחולה אנקי על חיזבאלה. השמדנו את מבצר הטרור הגדול שלו ברקס הבופור וברקס אלי טאהר.
Our policy is clear: we continue to destroy terrorism in the security region of Lebanon. נעשום remove כל איום על מתאין ישראל.
ומכאן אני אומר לאויבים שלנו: אמן לא למדתם את הלקח אד אחד, ותפישו לתקופ... pic.twitter.com/0EWhFQxcqm

"Our policy is clear"
Netanyahu stressed that Israel has no intention of stopping operations in southern Lebanon and that the army will continue to strike Hezbollah's infrastructure.
"Our policy is clear: we will continue to destroy the terrorist infrastructure in the security zone in Lebanon," he declared.
He added that Israel will continue to eliminate any threat that, in his opinion, could endanger the country, signaling the continuation of Israeli military presence and operations in this part of Lebanon.
The statements come after the destruction of extensive underground Hezbollah facilities in the Ali Taher area, which Israel considers strategically important for the organization's military activity in southern Lebanon.
Warning of a new attack
At the end of the statement, Netanyahu issued a direct warning to Israel's opponents, saying that any new attempt to attack the country would be followed by a harsher response.
"If you still haven't learned your lesson and decide to attack us again, you will receive even heavier blows," he said.
"There is still work to be done and, God willing, we will finish it," the Israeli prime minister concluded.
Netanyahu's statements indicate that Israel intends to maintain military pressure on Hezbollah and continue operations in southern Lebanon, at a time when tensions in the region remain high.
