Visiting the Israeli Air Force’s new giant missile-detecting balloon in northern Israel, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant says Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah’s “equations” are collapsing, as the IAF operates over all areas in Lebanon.
“The equations that Hezbollah thought it had created collapse when the Air Force and the IDF decide to attack, in Damascus, in Beirut, in Sidon, in Nabatieh, everywhere, they do this work and no equation stands in the way,” Gallant says at the base housing the detection system, dubbed “Elevated Sensor,” or “Sky Dew” in Israel.
“Every day the IDF wins and Hezbollah loses, I hope there won’t be more difficult days, but if there are, you are ready,” he adds to the IAF soldiers.
