FM Sa’ar: Any breach of a ceasefire with Hezbollah ‘will be dealt with immediately’

The test of any ceasefire with Hezbollah north will be in its enforcement, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar tells his New Hope faction.
Two elements of a potential agreement must be enforced, he says — keeping Hezbollah from returning to southern Lebanon and preventing Hezbollah from rearming.
“One thing must be clear, and in my opinion it is clear and agreed upon by all parts of the government and all members of the government,” says Sa’ar. “We will not allow a return to October 6. Any violation will be dealt with immediately.”
