Israel hints at post-ceasefire options: Katz speaks of disarming Hezbollah politically or militarily

Tel Aviv, Israel – An Israeli minister stated that the issue of disarming Hezbollah will remain a prominent topic in the coming period, emphasizing that this goal could be achieved through political or military means, following the establishment of the ceasefire in Lebanon.

In remarks carried by Israeli media, the minister explained that his country believes addressing what he termed “security threats” in the north will not be limited to the truce, but will require broader arrangements to ensure that escalation is not renewed.

He added that Israel will continue to monitor developments on the ground, keeping all options open as dictated by national security considerations.

These statements come at a time of cautious calm in Lebanon following the ceasefire’s implementation, amidst intensive international efforts to solidify the truce and prevent its collapse.

Observers believe that raising the issue of disarmament at this sensitive juncture could open a new chapter of political and security tensions, despite ongoing diplomatic efforts to contain the situation.
