Israeli army’s chief of staff Herzi Halevi said that the military will continue to strike Lebanon until displaced Israelis from the north can return, Al Jazeera reports.
“Hezbollah has paid a high price, its chain of command has collapsed, many of its operatives have been killed, and extensive infrastructure dismantled,” Halevi said in a statement released by the Israeli army.
“This organisation will continue to shoot, we will continue to fight, to implement plans, go further, conduct deep strikes, and hit Hezbollah very hard.
“We will stop when we know that we are bringing the residents [of northern Israel back] safely.”
