Israel Defense Minister Katz Says Lebanon’s First Line of Defense Has Been Destroyed

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz said Lebanon’s “first line of defense” has been destroyed and that Israel is destroying all houses. According to Odaily, Katz said that even if U.S. President Donald Trump holds a different view, “no one can give us orders,” adding that Israel has already proven this. Katz also said residents would no longer be able to see their homes standing in front of them. He said that in Lebanon, 200,000 residents who had lived in a “security zone” would not return, adding that none of them would come back.
