IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir said during a situation assessment on the outskirts of Bint Jbeil in southern Lebanon that "our main combat arena is in Lebanon." Regarding the ceasefire with Iran, he said: "The IDF's achievements in the war against Iran are unprecedented and historic. The Iran before this war is not the same Iran, it is much weaker. We are prepared to return to fighting with full force if required at any given moment." Zamir toured southern Lebanon and afterward approved plans for continuation with command commanders.
