Israel to keep striking Hezbollah until all Goals are accomplish
Speaking at the JFK airport in New York, Netanyahu said Israel will “keep striking Hezbollah until we accomplish all of our goals.” Defense Minister Yoav Gallant approved “the continued IDF offensive activity” against Hezbollah in Lebanon, according to his office.
The IDF claimed it killed the commander of Hezbollah’s aerial forces Muhammad Hussein Sarour, in an airstrike in Beirut on September 26.
