A day after IDF forces pulled out of most of their positions in southern Lebanon, flags of the Hezbollah terror group have been hoisted near the border by supporters of the group in several villages.
David Azoulay, mayor of the town of Metula, just by the border, tells Channel 12: “The government of abandonment is continuing on its path in the north. Dozens of Hezbollah men [arrived] under the guise of civilians — and there is zero response. Once again we are containing and containing it.
