Both Hamas and Hezbollah pose only a limited threat to the State of Israel, Army Chief Gabi Ashkenazi said at the Herzliya Conferene.
"I do not underestimate Hamas or Hezbollah, but they cannot take over the Negev or Galilee," he said. Hezbollah and Hamas understood that encountering the IDF on the classic battlefields is lethal, and are therefore fighting out of urban areas, the army chief added. (Boaz Fyler)
