Kats Menaces Security Zone Withdrawal
Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz stated that the Israeli army will not withdraw from the security zones it controls in Lebanon, Syria, and the Gaza Strip, despite agreements with Lebanon stipulating gradual withdrawal and increasing international calls to end the Israeli military presence in the occupied territories. Katz affirmed that the forces will remain in areas extending from the Mediterranean Sea to the Citadel of Shuqif and Mount Hermon, with the aim of protecting northern residents and Israeli troops. The security zones in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza include buffer zones established by the Israeli army, which Israel justifies as necessary to protect its population from infiltration and attacks—lessons learned from the events of October 7.
