'We are getting close' to taking action against Hezbollah, Israeli ambassador to UN says
FRANCE 24 spoke to Israel's new ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon. Earlier this Tuesday, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu made the safe return of residents to the north of Israel – which is facing near-daily attacks by Hezbollah from neighbouring Lebanon – an official war goal. "We are still trying diplomatic channels in order to allow them to come back to their communities," Danon said of the residents. But he warned that Israel will "use other capabilities" if it sees no progress. "There is some point in life where you have to put a red line and understand that you have to take action. We are getting close to that moment".
