The Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant says the army will continue to battle Hezbollah in Lebanon even if his country reaches a ceasefire deal with Hamas and allied groups in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.
He wrote on X: “My orders in the south and the north are clear: Even if we reach a settlement in the south, we will continue to fight in the north until we bring Hezbollah to a settlement and restore the [Israel’s] residents with security.”
