What is true for Lebanon is true for Syria, and is true for other more distant places.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant issued a similar warning this weekend, saying that even if Israel agreed to a cease-fire with Hamas, the IDF would not hesitate to strike Hezbollah if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Israel will mark four months since it began its retaliatory campaign against Hamas later this week. Israeli officials have repeatedly warned that they expect the war to continue for \u2018many more months.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>An Israeli intelligence official told reporters last week that Israel remains far away from achieving its stated goals of capturing Hamas\u2019 leaders and ammunition reserves and rendering Hamas military bases and tunnels inoperative.<\/p>\n<p>Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar remains at large, though he is believed to be somewhere within the network of tunnels beneath Khan Younis, the largest city in southern Gaza.<\/p>\n<p>Israel\u2019s warning this weekend comes as tensions between the U.S. and Iran threaten to boil over. Iran-backed terrorist groups have caused chaos throughout the Middle East since Hamas\u2019 Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, going so far as to kill 3 U.S. soldiers last week.<\/p>\n<p>President Biden\u2019s administration has vowed a response, and Iran has likewise vowed to \u2018decisively\u2019 respond to any U.S. attacks. U.S. Central Command said Friday that forces conducted airstrikes on more than 85 targets in Iraq and Syria against Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force and affiliated militia groups.<\/p>\n<p>The Associated Press contributed to this report<\/p>\n\n<div>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Israeli military offered a stark warning to Hezbollah and Iran on Saturday as the war in Gaza was just days away from completing its fourth month.
