Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Friday that Israel was giving a chance to a temporary ceasefire with Hezbollah in Lebanon, at the request of US President Donald Trump. Netanyahu emphasized that the Hezbollah was weaker than in the past, as Israel was able to fight against the threats of invasion to Israel and launching anti-tank missiles from Lebanon.

But he admitted that job had not done yet as there were still risks from Hezbollah’s rockets and UAVs. He mentioned that Israel’s military was staying beyond Israeli northern territory, in both Lebanon and Syria, in order to defend Israeli civilians.
