Israel\u2019s Minister of Defence Yoav Gallant, when speaking about how many Hezbollah terrorist commanders more than 300 of their terrorists in total were eliminated by the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) said, \u201c[Hezbollah leader] Nasrallah is dragging Lebanon into a very, very difficult reality \u2013 one in which the residents of Lebanon will pay the price [suffer as a result of Hezbollah\u2019s actions].\u201d The comment came when Gallant held an operational situation assessment and visited several command and control centres in the IDF\u2019s Northern Command on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Upon completing the visit, Minister Gallant referred to Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah\u2019s recent speech in which he claimed that \u201cIsrael\u2019s Minister of Defense is inflating the numbers.\u201d Minister Gallant presented a series of images of Hezbollah brigade commanders and emphasized that the IDF has eliminated over 300 terrorists and commanders in the terrorist organization. \u201cNasrallah is dragging Lebanon into a very, very difficult reality \u2013 one in which the people of Lebanon and Hezbollah forces will pay the price [suffer the consequences of Hezbollah\u2019s actions],\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the same Nasrallah who told you two weeks ago that there were no casualties among Hezbollah terrorists.\u201d \u201cMy question to him \u2013 aren\u2019t they your people?\u201d Gallant then listed a number of the Hezbollah commanders eliminated by the IDF, while pointing at picture of them. These included Commander of the Bint Jbeil Brigade, and the senior officers \u2013 Abu Madi who handled missiles his whole life, Sid Mechi, one of the most senior Hezbollah operatives, Jawad Twil, Commander of the Radwan forces. \u201cAren\u2019t they all Hezbollah members?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
