Israel’s far-right minister Itamar Ben-Gvir says “All of Lebanon must burn” following a new report of Israeli casualties during fighting with Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. The remarks come after Israel’s military says four Israeli soldiers are killed in combat. According to the military, the soldiers die during an operation near Kfar Tebnit, after a tank is hit.
The comments are made amid reported tensions around ceasefire arrangements in southern Lebanon. One account links the minister’s statements to broader claims of repeated ceasefire violations, but the sources provided do not describe the specific circumstances of those alleged breaches. Both outlets focus on the same sequence: the IDF reports four soldiers killed in combat, and Ben-Gvir delivers inflammatory rhetoric afterward. Neither source provides additional verified details beyond the reported location of the operation and the manner of the incident involving the tank.
