We are in this campaign. I say to the Americans and the Israelis - Lebanon and its people will not be able to allow the looting of its resources. We have reached the last stop - and we will go until The end. So no one will try us or threaten us."

He added: "In Lebanon we are sovereign in our decision. We are a nation that has been dealing with sieges, wars and assassinations for 40 years. We will continue to strive for a promising future for the people of Lebanon, for a strong and free Lebanon that is able to protect its sovereignty, its dignity and the exploitation of its natural resources. We strive for a Lebanon that is able to prevent With every hand to get closer to its natural resources, as it cut off every hand that tried to get closer to the land, its villages and towns."

As a reminder, a security source told "Israel Today" this morning that "the preliminary action against the Islamic Jihad is intended to send a message to all the players in the region, including Hezbollah, that Israel will not shy away from such actions in the entire region."
These words follow on from Defense Minister Benny Gantz's statement last night.
The minister hinted that "Even in the future, if it becomes necessary, we will launch a pre-emptive strike, to protect the citizens of Israel, Israel's sovereignty and its infrastructure. This is contained in each of the fronts. From Tehran to Khan Yunis."
