Hinting at Syria strikes, Gallant says Israel will ‘expand the campaign’ against Hezbollah – The Times of Israel

Posted By on March 30, 2024

Hinting at Israels alleged overnight airstrike in Syria, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant says the military will expand the campaign [against Hezbollah] and increase the rate of attacks in the north.

Israel is turning from defending to pursuing Hezbollah, we will reach wherever the organization operates, in Beirut, Damascus and in more distant places, Gallant says following an assessment at the IDF Northern Command in Safed.

In the past day, a top Hezbollah commander was killed in an IDF drone strike in southern Lebanon, and five other Hezbollah terrorists were among 38 dead in alleged Israeli airstrikes in Syrias Aleppo.

Gallant says he observed the strike on Ali Naim, the deputy commander of Hezbollahs rocket unit, this morning.

The one responsible for the serious damage in Lebanon is Hezbollah and the one responsible for the many casualties in the Hezbollah group is [Hassan] Nasrallah personally. They have over 320 terrorists killed, and we will exact a price for any action that comes out of Lebanon, he says.

Wherever we need to act, we will act, Gallant adds.
