Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu underscored an aggressive stance in a recent briefing with national air force leaders on Thursday, emphasizing a new guiding principle in response to the ongoing combats with Hezbollah along the Lebanon border. “Whoever harms us, his blood is on his head,” Netanyahu declared, signaling a zero-tolerance policy towards any aggression and affirming Israel’s determination to retaliate decisively against any threats. “We have put this into practice,” said Netanyahu in Kirya in Tel Aviv, stressing that Israel is “determined to restore security to the north and return the residents safely to their homes.” Concerns of full-scale war between Israel and the Hamas-allied militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon have increased after an Israeli airstrike killed a senior Hezbollah commander. The US underlined there is no desire for war to spread in the Middle East while Iran said to be ready to support Hezbollah if needed.
