Message of condolence
A message of condolence was also shared by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said “I would like to send my condolences from the bottom of my heart to the families of our heroes who fell today in Lebanon.
“God bless them. May their memory be a blessing."
“We are in the middle of a tough war against Iran's axis of evil, which seeks to destroy us. This will not happen - because we will stand together, and with God's help - we will win together.”
Netanyahu’s message concluded with a promise to return the hostages from Gaza, who Hamas abducted on October 7, and the residents of the North who were evacuated due to constant missile attacks by Hezbollah in Lebanon.
