Israeli military chief Eyal Zamir says the country has “approved plans for the continuation [of attacks] – both in Lebanon and in Iran”, Al Jazeera reports.

He says the military has struck Iran with the US “hard, stripped them of their defensive capabilities and weakened them”.

“Now we must not allow them any achievements on the nuclear issue, in Hormuz and in the other matters on the table,” he adds. “We know how to scramble them for an immediate, powerful strike.”

Regarding Lebanon, Zamir says Israel’s attacks in the south of the country continue. “We are capturing and clearing key areas and removing threats from the northern settlements.”
