Israel’s army chief of staff, General Eyal Zamir, has said that “we will honour the agreement” with Iran and will “work to ensure its success,” Al Jazeera reports.

“The agreement signed with the Lebanese government is historic and of great significance. The operational strength and military achievements recorded by the [army] in recent months are what laid the groundwork for this agreement,” General Zamir said in a statement.

“We will honour the agreement and work to ensure its success. The real test now is how both sides behave on the ground, and the coming period will determine the course of the next phase.”
