The head of the Israeli army, Eyal Zamir, says his troops are prepared for Israel’s campaign to continue across all fronts, Al Jazeera reports.

“The campaign across all fronts is not yet over, and you must be prepared for it to continue. We are prepared for any change in the situation and ready for a wide range of scenarios”, Zamir told officers while on a visit to Israeli-occupied territory in southern Lebanon.

Zamir said Israeli forces would “push deeper and reach additional areas” on the Lebanon front if required.

Israeli forces have maintained their occupation of many points in southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire, and have continued periodic strikes, as talks continue over Hezbollah’s disarmament and a full Israeli withdrawal.
