Amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a stern warning to Hezbollah and Iran. Speaking to the Israeli Knesset, Netanyahu cautioned, “Don’t test us in the north. Don’t make the mistake of the past. Today, the price you will pay will be far heavier,” alluding to Israel’s 2006 war with Hezbollah.
This comes as Israel prepares for the potential of a new front opening on its northern border with Lebanon, where it has exchanged fire with the Hezbollah.
The Israeli military has ordered residents from 28 communities to evacuate, signaling heightened preparations for conflict.
