Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a conversation with the Forum of Ministry Directors-General and local leaders from the confrontation line that "the issue of dismantling Hezbollah is before our eyes. This is also connected to the overall campaign with Iran, which is still in full swing contrary to what is reported in the media. But we are absolutely committed to doing everything to fundamentally change the situation in Lebanon." Netanyahu also said in his address to the local leaders: "I ask you to do everything possible to prevent residents from leaving the communities. We are expanding this security zone to distance the anti-tank threat from our communities and our territory."
