The new head of the Israeli Defense Ministry outlined the main goals of the war

    Israel's new Defense Minister, Yisrael Katz, outlined the main goals of the war as the return of all hostages held by the Palestinian Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip, as well as the defeat of this group and the Shiite Hezbollah movement in Lebanon.

    "We will work together to achieve victory over the enemy and achieve the goals of the war: the return of all hostages is the main goal, the destruction of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the defeat of Hezbollah in Lebanon, the deterrence of Iranian aggression and the safe return of residents of the north and south to their homes," Israel Katz wrote on his social media account network X.

    Earlier on Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the dismissal of Defense Minister Yoav Galant due to a lack of trust between them and the inability to continue the military campaign in the same way in light of the differences that have emerged. The post of Minister of Defense will be occupied by the current Foreign Minister Israel Katz, reports ria.ru.
