Israel is at war with the Shiite movement Hezbollah, but not with the people of Lebanon. “To the people of Lebanon I say: our war is not with you. To our enemies I say: we are strong and determined. I would say to our partners: our war is your war”, said the Minister of Defense of the Jewish State, Yoav Galant. His statements were released by the press service of the Israeli Ministry of Defense.
Gallant also confirmed that "Israel eliminated Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah." "He was the murderer of thousands of Israelis and foreign citizens" and “poses an immediate threat to the lives of thousands of Israelis”, the minister added.
