Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Monday revealed pictures of an Iranian terror base at an airport at Kilat Jabar in southern Lebanon, only 20 kilometers from the border with Israel.
Gallant said that one can see Iran’s flag flying on the aircraft’s runways which the ayatollahs’ regime is using to plot against Israel.
The defense minister said, “put differently, the land is Lebanese, the control is Iranian, the target is Israel.”
He said that Israel must “remain aware and at ready, with our eyes set on the binoculars and our fingers on the trigger.”
Gallant added that Iran remains the greatest threat to Israel, though sometimes it uses Hezbollah and other proxies to fight its wars against the Jewish state.
If Hezbollah “goes toward a conflict with us, they will pay a high price.”
“We will not allow Iran to turn Syria into a Hezbollah 2.0” with powerful rockets, he said.
