Israel's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has declared that Israel will not allow Hezbollah to return to border villages in southern Lebanon after Israeli troops withdraw from the area. This announcement was made during Gallant's visit to an observation post along the border, where he emphasized the Israel Defense Forces' (IDF) commitment to targeting Hezbollah military infrastructure in the border villages.
Gallant stated, 'I have instructed the IDF to ensure the destruction of attack infrastructure and to prevent terrorists from reoccupying these locations.' He further explained that by eliminating these targets, Israeli citizens who had evacuated the area for safety reasons would be able to return to the north.
The Defense Minister's directive underscores Israel's determination to maintain security along its borders and prevent the resurgence of Hezbollah presence in the region. The IDF's efforts to dismantle Hezbollah's military infrastructure in the border villages aim to safeguard Israeli communities and ensure peace and stability in the area.
As tensions persist in the region, Israel remains vigilant in its defense strategies and continues to monitor developments along its borders. The government's proactive stance against threats posed by Hezbollah demonstrates its unwavering commitment to protecting its citizens and maintaining regional security.
