Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir:

For every tear of an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep. All of Lebanon must burn!

"You need to go berserk. To obliterate. To crush the terror" - said by a peaceful Jew who the whole world talks about his right to defense

Airstrikes are ongoing non-stop everywhere. No further need to report every single one.

WATCH: Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

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

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz on Lebanon:

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.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

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

Not one of them is returning.

Between Smotrich saying land grab, Ben Gvir saying Lebanon should burn, and Gantz officially saying they intentionally destroyed dozens of villages intentionally so people can never come back and Israelis don't see a standing building

This is a war crime. This is genocidal intent. This is beyond acceptable by anyone

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

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.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

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.
