A military response is necessary to secure the safety of the northern part of the country, Yoav Gallant said<\/strong><\/p>\n

Only further military action against Hezbollah would make it safe for displaced Israelis to return to their homes in the areas bordering Lebanon, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has said. <\/p>\n

During a meeting with US envoy Amos Hochstein in Tel Aviv on Monday, Gallant stressed that a window for a diplomatic agreement with the Lebanese-based militants was closing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHezbollah continues to tie itself to Hamas,\u201d<\/em> Gallant wrote on X (formerly Twitter). \u201cTherefore, the only way left to ensure the return of Israel\u2019s northern communities to their homes, will be through military action.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Gallant relayed the same point during his phone call with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, warning that the time for an agreement with Hezbollah was \u201crunning out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

More than 60,000 Israelis have been displaced since Hezbollah began firing rockets and mortar shells across the border in support of Hamas in Gaza. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) responded by striking targets in Lebanon and killing several senior Hezbollah operatives, including Fuad Shukr, who was killed in an airstrike in Beirut in late July.<\/p>\n

Revenge delayed: Why is Iran in no hurry to retaliate against Israel?<\/a><\/p>\n

Gallant and other Israeli officials have threatened Hezbollah with a larger-scale military response in the past, raising fears of a full-blown invasion of Lebanon. Iran, for its part, threatened West Jerusalem with \u201can obliterating war\u201d<\/em> if it attacked Lebanon.<\/p>\n

The US, however, has discouraged Israel from expanding\u00a0operations against Hezbollah due to concern that it could spark a new prolonged regional conflict.<\/p>\n

Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who has been attempting to broker a peace deal between Israel and Hamas, said in July that Washington was \u201cdetermined\u201d<\/em> to avoid a larger conflict. <\/p>\n

During his meeting with Gallant, Hochstein said that Washington favors a diplomatic solution and warned that an offensive against Hezbollah would not lead to the return of refugees, the Times of Israel reported, citing a source familiar with the matter. <\/p>\n

Hezbollah also sent a strongly worded warning last week, with senior member Naim Qassem saying that a full-fledged war would produce \u201clarge losses on both sides\u201d<\/em> and more refugees.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
