Gantz tells Israelis in north to 'be ready for tougher days'

Israeli war cabinet minister Benny Gantz has traveled to northern Israel after an intensification of Hezbollah attacks there, warning of “tougher days” ahead, Israel’s Channel 12 has reported.

Gantz met with the mayors of several northern towns close to the frontier and told them: “Don’t complain about the present, because the future could be more problematic.”

“Get ready for tougher fights, get ready for tougher days here, it can get us to war,” Gantz added.

"I believe that the Lebanese government and also Hezbollah do not want the eruption of a large-scale war, but it is necessary to pressure it (Hezbollah) at the current time before everyone goes to a broader war," he want on to say.
