Israeli Forces Strike Hezbollah Targets in Southern Lebanon

A military spokesman stated that Israeli forces will remain in the buffer zone as long as Israeli citizens face threats from Hezbollah.

Strikes are reported to be ongoing in the southern region of Lebanon. The spokesman tied the continued presence of forces to the persistence of threats against civilians.

Officials described the buffer zone as a temporary security measure. The policy will stay in place until the assessed threat level changes, the spokesman said. >"Israeli forces will stay in the 'buffer zone' as long as Israeli citizens are under Hezbollah threat." — Israeli military spokesman
