Defense Minister Israel Katz confirms Israeli fighter jets buzzed over the funeral ceremony for Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in the Lebanese capital a short while ago.
“Israeli Air Force aircraft currently flying over Beirut, over the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah, convey a clear message: Those who threaten to destroy Israel and attack Israel, it will be their end,” he says in a statement.
“You will specialize in funerals, and we will in victories,” Katz adds.
