Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir warned on Monday that reaching a ceasefire deal for the war in Lebanon, which is currently under discussion, would be “a big mistake”, AFP reports.
“An agreement with Lebanon is a big mistake,” Ben Gvir wrote in a post on X, adding that ending the fighting now would be a “historic missed opportunity to eradicate Hezbollah”.
“I understand all the constraints and reasons, and still it is a grave mistake,” Ben Gvir wrote, referring to the Iran-backed Islamist movement.
Ben Gvir called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to continue fighting until there was “absolute victory”.
