Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant recently made a significant statement regarding the diminishing effectiveness of Hezbollah and Hamas as proxies for Iran. This declaration came after Israeli military operations successfully targeted and eliminated key figures within these groups in recent weeks.
Gallant made these remarks during a memorial ceremony held on Mount Herzl to honor Israeli soldiers who lost their lives on October 7 of the previous year. He highlighted the impact of Israeli operations on both Hamas and Hezbollah, stating that Hamas in the south had been rendered ineffective as a military entity, while Hezbollah in the north had suffered significant losses to its command structure and missile capabilities.
