Netanyahu Unveils “Greater Israel” Plan in Speech: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered on Sunday the "further expansion of the existing security zone" in southern Lebanon,
as announced in a video message in which he foreshadowed a greater Israeli military occupation of the southern part of this neighboring country.
"I have now decided to further expand the existing security zone, to finally thwart the threat of invasion and keep the launching of anti-tank missiles away from our border," Netanyahu added, pledging to "radically change" the situation in the north of the country, an area near the border.
According to him, Israel's expansion of its control in southern Lebanon is due to the fact that the Lebanese Shiite group Hezbollah "still retains a residual capacity to launch rockets," which led him, along with commanders and senior officials, to decide today to address how to "eliminate" this threat.
The president also listed other places occupied by the Israeli army as examples of how "the face of the Middle East" and security for Israel have changed.

Netanyahu Unveils “Greater Israel” Plan in Speech
🔹In a press conference, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu openly spoke about Tel Aviv’s new strategy to create “security belts” in the Gaza Strip, southern Lebanon, and southern Syria; a strategy that analysts see as part of the regime’s effort to advance the long-standing “Greater Israel” plan and expand its occupation in the region.
🔹Emphasizing that the Israeli army now controls “more than 50 percent of the Gaza Strip” and has also made “significant advances” in southern Lebanon and Syria, he said: “We have created deep security zones beyond our borders. In Gaza, more than half of the Gaza Strip. In Syria, from the peak of Mount Hermon (Jebel Al-Sheikh) to Yarmouk. And in Lebanon, in a vast buffer zone that neutralizes the threat from Hezbollah and reduces the risk of anti-tank missiles being fired at Israel.”
🔹The Prime Minister of the Israeli regime, with a clear disregard for international law, described the occupation and the creation of these security belts as a "field achievement" and implicitly spoke of a plan that aims to expand the occupation and realize the idea of "Greater Israel"; a plan that has been discussed in the regime's security and political circles for years and is now being pursued with military operations on three fronts.
🔹In another part of his speech, Netanyahu spoke of "new coalitions with important countries in the region" and stated that some Arab governments are in talks about fighting alongside Israel against Iran/ IRNA
