killed 182 people on Monday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a strong statement saying “we don’t wait for threat, but get ahead of it,” AFP said.
Netanyahu addressed recent development son the northern border with Lebanon in a statement to the Israeli public on Monday, as per AFP.
Following a situation assessment at the Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv, Netanyahu stated: “I promised we would change the security balance, the balance of power in the north — and that is exactly what we are doing,” Netanyahu said during a security meeting, adding that Israel’s policy was to preempt threats rather than “wait” for them,” according to AFP.

Netanyahu said on Monday Israel faced “complicated days” as it stepped up strikes against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon and he called on Israelis to stay united as the campaign unfolded.

“I promised that we would change the security balance, the balance of power in the north – that is exactly what we are doing,” he said in a message issued following a situational assessment at military headquarters in Tel Aviv.
As per

Lebanese health ministry

, the Israeli airstrike, which targeted Hezbollah forces backed by

Iran

in southern Lebanon, resulted in deaths of at least 182 people, including children. Since the outbreak of the war in the

Gaza strip

in October 7, these attacks represent the most significant escalation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.
Post the Israeli attacks on Lebanon, the Iranian foreign ministry issued a stern warning to Israel on Monday, cautioning of potentially severe consequences following deadly attacks on Hezbollah strongholds in Lebanon.

Nasser Kanani

, the ministry’s spokesman, denounced the Israeli strikes as “insane” and forewarned about “the dangerous consequences of the Zionists’ new adventure”.
