The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff, Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, has announced that Israel will intensify its military strikes against Hezbollah. This decision comes in response to recent rocket fire on northern Israel. Halevi emphasized in a public address on Sunday evening that the strikes will continue until Hezbollah understands the message and ceases its attacks. He also stated that the goal is to ensure the safe return of northern residents to their homes. The IDF has already eliminated several top Hezbollah commanders, including Ibrahim Aqil, and has warned that it has more capabilities yet to be deployed. Halevi made these statements during a speech at Tel Nof Airbase, underlining Israel's commitment to defending its citizens and delivering a strong message to any threats in the Middle East.
