Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated moments ago that Israel is at war with Hezbollah and has ordered an intensification of operations in Lebanon. "We are at war with Hezbollah. Just in the last few weeks, our heroic fighters have eliminated over six hundred terrorists. I want you to know that. Over six hundred terrorists," Netanyahu stated. "But we are not taking our foot off the pedal. I said to press the pedal even harder. We will strike them."

Netanyahu addressed the drone threat directly, stating, "True, they are firing drones at us, FPV drones. We have a special team working on this and we will solve this too." Commending residents of the north, he stated, "You are showing resilience. I want to commend the residents of the north, resilience that inspires all of us. But what this requires of us now is to increase the blows, to increase the intensity. We will strike them hip and thigh."
