Nobody can tell us what to do, and we've proven it.

The entire first line of Lebanese villages has been destroyed.

We are destroying all the houses. The residents will never see them standing before their eyes again.

In Lebanon, the 200,000 residents who lived in the "security zone" are not returning.

Not one of them is returning.

The IDF is there, it destroys the infrastructure and destroys the villages.

We are fighting there (Lebanon). We do not need al-Julani. Al-Julani, the terrorist in a suit, does not need to come and help us.

We saw his methods against the Alawites and what he tried to do to the Druze.

We know Syria well. He will not come to help us in Lebanon. He should stay in Syria, not interfere with us, and not make us interfere with him.

Do you know what really hurts the jihadists? Maybe it hurts them when you kill them personally, but they don't care as much about that.

What really hurts them is when you take territory from them and destroy their homes—and that's what we did.

We are already in more than 60% of the land in Gaza, and all of it is destroyed.

It is destroyed above ground and underground. That is the difference in the approach we introduced.

You remember the raids? They would go in and come out.

We go in, destroy, and do not leave. That's what we're doing now in Lebanon.

The IDF must be on the other side of the border, beyond the border, defending the State of Israel against jihadist organizations in Lebanon, in Syria, and in Gaza.

We will not move from the "security zones" — not in Syria, not in Gaza, and not in Lebanon.

Why are we on the other side in Syria?

Because we need to be there to protect ourselves against what we see in Syria.

In Arab society within the State of Israel, we're talking about hundreds of thousands of weapons, including machine guns, explosive devices, and anti-tank missiles. This is more dangerous than Iran.

Just imagine 3,000, not 300,000, just 3,000, Arabs with M16 rifles.

One hundred in Kfar Saba, one hundred in Ra'anana, one hundred in Be'er Sheva, one hundred in Afula — just 3,000 in total.

In the next multi-front war, that would be an existential event compared to which October 7 would pale. The State of Israel has lost its monopoly on the use of force.

Despite everything, the air defense system continues to demonstrate high effectiveness and reliable performance.

The campaign included the killing of alleged Tren de Aragua leader Héctor Guerrero ("El Niño"), whose death was announced by President Trump on June 12 following a U.S. airstrike.

U.S. officials say the effort is intended to weaken criminal organizations that have long controlled mining areas rich in gold, diamonds, and minerals such as coltan.

Since Maduro’s departure, the U.S. has eased some restrictions on Venezuelan gold transactions, U.S. officials and business executives have visited Caracas to discuss investments, and Venezuela has approved new legislation opening its mining sector to foreign investors.

The article accused Trump of “betraying Israelis,” harming American and Western interests, and contributing to what it described as “America’s humiliation.”

Its central argument is that Trump “could have been the greatest president of all” but instead “failed.”

Addressing Trump directly, Zaken wrote: “Mr. President, you have gravely harmed the human interests of the enlightened world, and you may be remembered forever as the president who brought about America’s humiliation. You betrayed us, the Israelis.”
