Defense Minister Israel Katz said that "after eliminating the terrorists and destroying Hezbollah's terror tunnels on the Ali Taher Ridge, the IDF is preparing operationally to control the ridge and prevent any attempt by Hezbollah or any other entity to return and establish itself there. Whoever approaches it will be destroyed." He added that "the ridge is part of the Yellow Line and Israel's security zone in Lebanon, which covers 700 square kilometers. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and I have made clear: We are not moving from the security zone – and the IDF will not withdraw and will not redeploy until Hezbollah is disarmed of its weapons throughout Lebanon."
