IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi says the Hezbollah terror group is trying to hide its losses amid intensive fighting and Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon.

“Hezbollah is trying to hide the significant harm we have inflicted on the organization in the past weeks,” says Halevi, according to the IDF.

The terror group “is experiencing control and command difficulties, leading to confusion at the decision-making level and challenges in its ability to function,” says the military chief.

Halevi says that “even in Iran they still don’t realize the full damage to the front they built along the northern border.”

Amid reports that the terror group is interested in a ceasefire, Halevi says the IDF will continue to strike at Hezbollah and “not allow it any respite or recovery.”
