Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that Israeli forces have crossed Lebanon’s Litani River, which runs around 30 kilometres north of the countries’ shared border, AFP reports.

“Our forces have crossed the Litani, they have moved up to the commanding terrain. We are operating in Beirut, in the Beqaa, across the entire front and are hitting Hezbollah head on,” he said during a visit to troops near the border, according to a video released by his office.
