Netanyahu to Hold Limited Security Meeting on Syria and Lebanon
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will hold a small security meeting focused on Syria and Lebanon, following comments by U.S. President Donald Trump about bringing Syrian forces into Lebanon to “deal with” Hezbollah instead of Israel. The discussion is meant to prepare for that possibility.
Jerusalem strongly opposes any entry of Syrian forces into Lebanon. Israeli officials are also worried that Damascus may already be taking steps in that direction, which is why Netanyahu convened the restricted briefing.
The meeting comes against the backdrop of Trump’s remarks and reflects Israeli concern that developments on the Syrian-Lebanese front could affect the campaign against Hezbollah. No further details on the timing or participants of the meeting were provided.
