Netanyahu threatened to hit Lebanon mercilessly

Israel will continue to attack Hezbollah throughout Lebanon, including Beirut, relentlessly, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday.

"I want to clarify. We will continue to relentlessly attack Hezbollah in all parts of Lebanon, including Beirut. We have proved it recently and will continue to prove it in the coming days," he said.

The statement was made during a visit to an Israeli Defense Force (IDF) military base near the city of Binyamina, which came under direct attack on Sunday by a combat drone launched by Hezbollah from Lebanon. As a result of the incident, four soldiers were killed, and dozens were injured.
