At northern border, Netanyahu vows to restore security in north ‘with or without an agreement’

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu toured the northern border and held a situational assessment on operations against Hezbollah today with top military commanders, his office says.

During the visit, Netanyahu said that “with or without an agreement” with Lebanon, restoring security in the north and returning residents to their homes requires pushing Hezbollah north of the Litani River, preventing the terror group from rearming and responding to any activity against Israel.

“In simple words: enforcement, enforcement, enforcement,” he says adding it was also important to cut off Hezbollah’s “oxygen” from Iran through Syria.

Netanyahu thanked reservists for their achievements, noting their long absence from their everyday lives and their families during the war.
