Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a stark warning during his visit to Lebanon:

“If Hezbollah joins Iran in an attack on Israel, it will suffer a severe blow and lose additional territory in southern Lebanon, in the Nabatieh and Litani areas. These areas will become part of Israel’s permanent security zone. The IDF is ready to carry out the ground maneuver.

“Beirut’s Dahieh district will also be evacuated, and its terrorist infrastructure will be struck. More than one million Shiites will be displaced within Lebanon.”
