Netanyahu: Israel to intensify attacks on Hezbollah and Iran

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Israel would step up attacks on the Shiite group Hezbollah and on Iran, according to Israeli media.

“Hezbollah made a very big mistake when it attacked us. We have already responded forcefully, and we will respond with even greater and additional force,” Netanyahu stated.

Hezbollah is dragging Lebanon into the conflict because of its ties with former Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed following a US and Israeli strike on his residence, PM added.
