We already reported on the mortar attack by Hezbollah on Israel that interrupted the agreed upon 60-day ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel.

Now, Israel’s defense minister has sent a warning to Lebanon that the terror group must act within the terms of the ceasefire, or Israel will hold Lebanon responsible as well, reports The Times of Israel:

Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Tuesday that if the recently implemented ceasefire with Hezbollah collapses, the state of Lebanon will no longer be exempt from blame for attacks, and Israel’s military responses will not distinguish between the terror group and the country where it is based.

Katz’s remarks came a day after as the ceasefire, reached last week after 14 months of conflict initiated by Hezbollah, was rattled by a Hezbollah mortar attack on Israeli territory and retaliatory IDF strikes on southern Lebanon.
