Israel Tells U.S. Envoy: "We Will Not Tolerate Threats by Iranian Proxy Hizbullah"
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told U.S. special envoy Amos Hochstein on Thursday, "There is only one possible result - a new reality in the northern arena which will allow for the secure return of our citizens," referring to the 80,000 residents of northern Israel who have been displaced by Hizbullah attacks since Oct. 7. "We find ourselves at a junction. There is a short window of time for diplomatic understandings, which we prefer. We will not tolerate the threats posed by the Iranian proxy, Hizbullah, and we will ensure the security of our citizens." Israel has increasingly warned that if the international community does not push Hizbullah away from the border through diplomatic means, it will take action.
