Herzi Halevi told troops: “You hear the jets overhead; we have been striking all day. This is both to prepare the ground for your possible entry andto continue degrading Hezbollah.

“Today, we will continue, we are not stopping; we keep striking and hitting them everywhere. The goal is very clear—to safely return the residents of the north,” he added.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has expressed concern over the “almost hour-on-hour” escalation of the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, as he reiterated calls for a ceasefire.

The US and France are also working on ceasefire proposals to resolve the escalating fighting in Lebanon, Israeli sources are quoted as saying by Reuters news agency.

However, no significant progress has been made so far, the officials add.
