IDF chief Zamir: 'historic' Lebanon framework was enabled by Israeli military achievements
Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir told troops the trilateral agreement signed in Washington is 'historic and significant,' and credited 'the operational strength and military achievements the IDF has secured in recent months' for creating the conditions that made it possible. Zamir said the real test will be 'the actions of both sides' and confirmed he approved continued IDF operations inside the southern Lebanon security zone in line with the deal. The remarks frame the framework as a direct dividend of Israeli pressure on Hezbollah rather than a diplomatic concession.
