- Defense Minister Yoav Gallant tells visiting Biden envoy Amos Hoschstein that only military action against Hezbollah will allow Israel to return the tens of thousands of evacuated northern residents to their homes. “Gallant emphasized that the possibility for an agreement is running out as Hezbollah continues to ‘tie itself’ to Hamas and refuses to end the conflict. Therefore, the only way left to ensure the return of Israel’s northern communities to their homes will be via military action,” says the Defense Ministry in its readout of their meeting in Tel Aviv.
