The chief of the IDF Northern Command, Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin, says that Hezbollah’s defensive forces have been defeated in every area that troops have so far operated in.
“Since we started [Operation] Northern Arrows, we have dealt a very serious blow to Hezbollah’s command and control. Most of [Hezbollah’s] brigade commanders have already been [eliminated] for the third time,” Gordin says during a visit to southern Lebanon this week, in a video distributed by the IDF.
“All the defensive areas we attacked have been defeated. We are determined to reach every [tunnel] shaft, every underground site, every stockpile of weapons,” he adds.
