NETANYAHU: Our forces continue to strike Hezbollah; we are about to decide the fate of Bint Jbeil. We are essentially about to eliminate this major stronghold of Hezbollah.

At the same time, I gave instructions yesterday to the IDF to continue to strengthen the “security zone.”

Our American friends constantly update us on the contacts with Iran. Our goals are identical. In anticipation of the possibility that the fighting will resume, we are prepared for every scenario.
