Gantz emphasized the solidarity of Israel’s leadership in the face of escalating threats from the Lebanese militant group, saying, “We are all one fist against Hezbollah – the government and the IDF have full, broad, and absolute backing.”
Gantz’s statement comes at a time of heightened tension along Israel’s northern border, where Hezbollah has increased its rhetoric and actions against Israel.

In addition to expressing his solidarity with the IDF and the government, Gantz urged the Israeli public to adhere to the directives issued by the Home Front Command. “Follow the directives of the Home Front Command – they save lives,” he wrote, highlighting the importance of civilian preparedness and adherence to safety protocols during this critical time.
