Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that the attacks on Lebanon were only part of an effort to promote the return home of residents evacuated from the northern part of the country.
Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu says that Israel’s attacks on Lebanon are not yet the end of the effort to bring the residents of the border regions back to their homes. Reported about it The Times of Israel.
– Nasrallah in Beirut and Khamenei in Tehran should know that this is only one step towards changing the situation in the north and the safe return of our residents to their homes, Netanyahu said in the Israeli parliament, the Knesset.
In his speech, Netanyahu refers to the supreme commander of Hezbollah To Hassan Nasrallah and to the head of the organization’s financier, Iran to Ali Khamenei. Israel killed Hezbollah’s second-in-command at the end of July By Fuad Shukri by airstrike. In addition, Israel is believed to be the extremist organization behind the assassination of the top leader of Hamas in Tehran.
Hezbollah has said it carried out Sunday’s attacks on Israel in retaliation for the killing of Shukri.
The news agency Reuters reports, citing a Hezbollah source, that the extremist organization has delayed its revenge for “political reasons”, especially due to the cease-fire negotiations between Israel and Hamas. The source says the group had worked to ensure its response would not lead to full-scale war.
