Netanyahu visits northern border, says no one should ‘test us’
Fresh from a tour of the northern border and amid new tensions between Israel and Lebanon, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he wouldn’t “recommend that anyone try to test us.”
“I just finished a tour we conducted in the [IDF’s] Northern Command with members of the [security] cabinet,” Netanyahu says in a video statement put out by his office. “I’m impressed by the great efforts the IDF has gone to here to protect our borders and our country.”
He concludes: “Our intentions are peaceful, but we’re ready for any scenario, and I wouldn’t recommend that anyone try to test us.”
