To prevent the commander-in-chief from withdrawing troops from southern Lebanon and other areas of the "safe buffer zone."

Israeli Defense Minister Katz issued a statement on the 15th, saying that Israel will remain "indefinitely" in its controlled southern Lebanon "security buffer zone," a policy that "also applies" to the "security buffer zones" established by Israel in Syria and Gaza. Katz stated that regardless of the pressure Israel faces, it will not withdraw from these areas, and the Israeli side will continue to "clear residents" from these areas and dismantle "infrastructure and buildings used by armed personnel." Katz said that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has conveyed Israel's position to U.S. President Trump and other senior U.S. officials. Katz also warned Iran not to attack Israel over the Lebanon situation, stating that any such action would be met with Israel's "strong response." (Xinhua)
