W460

Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz said Tuesday that Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah is getting in the way of reaching a solution regarding the border demarcation between Lebanon and Israel.

"Nasrallah is obstructing the attempt to reach a solution," Gantz said, as he accused Hezbollah's chief of "harming the Lebanese and the energy sector."

Gantz added that Israel is seeking a solution with Lebanon, hoping that the situation wouldn't "devolve into a war or days of fighting."

"We must defend our right to extract gas without harming the Lebanese," he said.
