Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly declared that Israel has successfully removed two major threats from Lebanon. He described an imminent threat involving thousands of terrorists infiltrating Israeli territory and conducting anti-tank fire at communities. Netanyahu also cited a distant threat built up over decades by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, involving 150,000 missiles and rockets aimed at destroying Israeli cities. The statement asserts both threats have now been eliminated, though it does not specify the means or timeline for their removal.
