According to a report by The Times of Israel on March 6, 2026, Israel’s military leadership has affirmed a resolute commitment to confronting Hezbollah decisively in the ongoing regional conflict.
The Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff declared that the country will seize every opportunity to strike Hezbollah and will not give up on disarming the terror group entirely.
He emphasized that Israel is actively crushing the Iranian terror regime and intends to deepen the achievements already made against it.
Hezbollah made the deliberate choice to align itself with Iran in this campaign and is consequently paying a heavy price for that decision.
The top military official stressed that the armed forces will continue to seize every opportunity to strike Hezbollah, further deepen those strategic achievements, and ultimately remove the persistent threat posed by the group to Israeli civilians.
He made it clear that disarming Hezbollah remains a non-negotiable objective that Israel will pursue without compromise.
Addressing mayors and leaders of local councils along the northern border, he described the current situation as a great opportunity for meaningful progress.
