Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a stern warning to Iran and Hezbollah during a recent officer graduation ceremony, outlining Israel's security zone policies in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza. Katz revealed that Israeli security forces have recently detected attempts by Iran and its proxies to carry out attacks aimed at influencing the upcoming Israeli elections. He stated that the Iranian regime is at its weakest point historically, which could provoke extreme actions. "If Iran attacks Israel, Iran will burn," Katz declared, adding that "anyone who attacks us, before or after the elections, will pay the heaviest price."
Katz emphasized that Israel is prepared to thwart any attack and will not withdraw from the security zones established in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza. He specified that if Hezbollah joins an Iranian attack, the IDF will expand the security zone in southern Lebanon up to the Litani River, involving the evacuation of the Shia population north of the Awali and Zahrani rivers to eliminate drone and terror threats. He also warned that Beirut's Dahieh district would be evacuated and face severe strikes, potentially displacing a million Shia civilians in Lebanon. Katz compared Hezbollah leader to Naim Qassem, suggesting the latter could lead to the complete destruction of the Shia community.
The Defense Minister also noted that the IDF currently controls about 70% of Gaza's territory, cleared of residents and terrorist infrastructure. He reported that security forces have eliminated approximately 4,000 terrorists involved in the October 7th attacks, vowing to eliminate the remaining 2,000.
