Israeli PM calls on UN Sec. Gen. Guterres to remove UNIFIL's forces from the combat zones in southern Lebanon and "out of harm's way" so they are not used as human shields by Hezbollah
Israel National News: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today (Sunday) addressed UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres with a call to evacuate UNIFIL soldiers from Hezbollah strongholds in southern Lebanon.
"During these days when we mark the anniversary of the difficult war that was imposed on us - the Revival War against Iran's axis of evil that rose up against us to destroy us. We are more determined than ever to secure our future, we are more determined than ever to defeat our enemies," Netanyahu said.
He added, "In Lebanon - we eliminated Nasrallah and his senior officials. Our heroic soldiers are destroying Hezbollah's weapons, headquarters, and terrorist tunnels. They are fighting mightily to return our residents in the north safely to their homes. We are not fighting the Lebanese people, we are fighting the terrorist branch of Iran - Hezbollah - which conquered Lebanon."
