Israel: Hezbollah will not be allowed to return

Hezbollah will never be allowed to return and establish themselves in southern Lebanon, so that they can threaten Israelis on the other side of the border. This is stated by the Israeli army chief Herzi Halevi in a speech, and announces continued attacks on Beirut and southern Lebanon.

Halevi praised in a speech the nine named Israeli soldiers who fell in Lebanon, and simultaneously warned the Shia Islamist movement in Lebanon of continued attacks.

To be able to return the inhabitants (in southern Israel) means to destroy the infrastructure for terrorism that Hezbollah has built up so that they can carry out raids against our communities and kill Israeli citizens when they receive orders to do so, said the head of the military IDF and continued:

We are firmly determined to destroy this infrastructure and eliminate everyone who is there.

On Thursday evening, sources close to Hezbollah reported that Israel had attacked a warehouse near Beirut's airport. It is unclear what was in the building.

IDF reported that it had attacked over 200 targets in Lebanon on Thursday. However, the attacks continued, not least just before midnight when reports of a larger attack on Beirut came.

State-owned Lebanese media report, according to AFP, of several new explosions in the southern part of the city. Sources close to Hezbollah say that the southern suburbs were hit by eleven rockets or drones and that entire houses shook.

Our forces in Lebanon are eliminating more and more terrorists, every confrontation ends with us gaining greater superiority, said Halevi in his speech according to the military's Telegram account.

Over the past two weeks, more than 1,200 people in Lebanon have been killed in Israeli attacks, according to BBC.
