An Israeli security official announced his forces' readiness to continue military operations on both Gaza and Lebanon fronts "for coming months," confirming the necessity of these operations to achieve desired security objectives.

In an extensive meeting with foreign journalists, the source presented Tel Aviv's vision of the conflict as a direct and indirect confrontation with Iran through its regional allies.

The official pointed to Israeli forces' success in dismantling the "command chain" of armed factions and "a large part of their military capabilities," despite human casualties reaching 387 soldiers on both fronts.

Military operations continue in northern Gaza Strip with focus on targeting armed factions' infrastructure, while daily confrontations persist on the Lebanese border.

The Israeli official estimated that fighters in Gaza have been reduced to "about a thousand" elements, possessing "one hundred long-range rockets" at most, as military operations continue.

The source showed openness to a settlement in Lebanon according to Resolution 1701, provided there is "ability to enforce" its terms, while describing the situation in Gaza as "complex," confirming continued military presence "as long as necessary."
