IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi says the military is exacting increasingly heavy prices from Hezbollah, as the terror group continues to carry out attacks on northern Israel.
“2024 will be challenging, we will be at war in Gaza, I don’t know if all year — we will be fighting in Gaza all year, that’s for sure,” says Halevi during a visit to the West Bank division.
“In the north, Hezbollah has decided to enter this war, we are exacting ever-increasing prices. It paid yesterday with seven deaths, it paid yesterday with two very, very important targets, and we are increasing the price it pays,” he says.
He says the IDF has the responsibility of returning Israel’s displaced northern residents to their homes, and this will come by either the military’s pressure on Hezbollah, “or we will end up with another war.”
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
