June 4 (EUROPA PRESS) –

Israel’s War Cabinet Minister Benny Gantz assured this Tuesday that the Israeli Government will resolve the situation on the northern border, bordering Lebanon through an “agreement” with the authorities of the neighboring country, or through “an escalation” in the attacks.

“I have been involved for months in a fight, with the Prime Minister (Benjamin Netanyahu) and with everyone, so that on September 1 we are done here and we can address new issues,” Gantz said during a visit to northern Israel. according to a statement collected by ‘The Times of Israel’.

Thus, Gantz has insisted that the Israeli authorities must guarantee that after the summer the situation on the northern border is resolved. “We cannot waste any more time,” said Gantz, who is not part of the Executive but whom Netanyahu included in the war cabinet after the attacks by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) on October 7.

In this sense, Gantz has reproached Netanyahu for not having accompanied him on his trip to northern Israel, since only those who “smell the coal of the fire, who listen to the cries of the residents and who speak with local leaders” are qualified to “lead” the country.

Many of the residents of Israel’s northern border with Lebanon had to leave their homes due to the exchange of attacks between the Israeli Army and the Lebanese Shiite militia party Hezbollah. In recent hours, fires have been reported in the area caused by Hezbollah projectiles and drones.
