The Israeli president warns the Lebanese terror group funded by Iran, 'Don't be mistaken. The IDF is strong, it is united'
IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi on Wednesday toured Israel's northern border with Lebanon, along with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, in light of heightened tensions with the Hezbollah terror group.
"I look over the other side of the border at Lebanon. Lebanon is in havoc, it is collapsing, and it is a tragedy. We extend our hands to the Lebanese people. They don't deserve this, they don't deserve the Iranian spell that kills and ruins many parts of their country," Herzog said in a statement.
"Most importantly, I want to tell our enemies - especially Hezbollah on the other side of the border - don't be mistaken. The IDF is strong, it is united. It is capable and will protect and defend our sovereignty and the security and well-being of the people of Israel. This is our top priority” the Israeli president asserted.
Commander of the IDF’s Northern Command, Uri Gordin, accompanied Halevi as they toured the construction of a security fence along the Israel-Lebanon Border, inspecting the progress made in recent months.
Two weeks ago, on July 20, the Hezbollah-affiliated media channel Al-Manar shared footage of Halevi on Israel’s northern front. The Israeli military head was seen with his entourage, as filmed by the Lebanese on their side of the border.
