Halevi: No Lebanese Village Is Beyond Israel's Reach
Israel's army chief said Wednesday that his troops could destroy any village inside Lebanon, ramping up rhetoric against the Hezbollah militant group based across the border.

The Israeli military has been exchanging fire with Iran-backed Hezbollah—a key ally of the Palestinian militant group Hamas—almost every day since the war in Gaza broke out on October 7.

Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi told a gathering of soldiers in Gaza that their actions in the besieged Palestinian territory had convinced him that they could take the fight into Lebanese territory if needed.


"We've fought in Gaza, so we know how to do it in Lebanon if we have to," he said, according to a statement from the Israeli army.

"After what you did (in Gaza), there is not a village in Lebanon that you cannot enter and destroy."
