Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has declared that Israeli forces will not withdraw from southern Lebanon even if pressured by the United States. According to Al Jazeera, citing The Times of Israel, Katz stated that Israel will maintain its military presence in the area despite Washington’s demands.
Katz explained that around 200,000 residents displaced by Israeli attacks and aggression would not be able to return to their homes in southern Lebanon. He argued that previous experiences showed that allowing civilians to live in the security zone led to roadside bombings and attacks on Israeli soldiers. Based on those incidents, he said Israel would not allow a repeat of such situations and would not retreat from the area.
The statement underscores Israel’s firm stance on maintaining control over southern Lebanon, highlighting ongoing tensions in the region amid international calls for de-escalation.
