During a visit to the Northern Command, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi warns that Israel has “many more capabilities” that have not been used yet in the fighting against Hezbollah.
“We are very determined to create the security conditions that will bring the residents [of the north] back to their homes, to the towns, with a high level of security, and we are ready to do whatever is required to enable this,” Halevi says in a video released by the IDF.
“We have many capabilities that we have not yet activated… we have seen some of these things, it seems to me that we are well prepared and we are preparing these plans going forward,” he continues.
“The rule is that every time we reach a certain stage, we have already prepared to move ahead forcefully with the next two steps. At each stage, the cost for Hezbollah should be high,” Halevi adds.
