At the end of the situation assessment, Gallant described the readiness on the border. "I have just completed a visit to the 146th Brigade headquarters on the northern border. I met determined and resolute reserve soldiers, as well as commanders who are familiar with the missions and are eager to achieve every success on the battlefield. We are in defense in the north and attacking with full force in the Gaza Strip; this is our top priority."

At the end of his remarks, the Defense Minister issued a warning to Hezbollah. "We do not wish to reach a war in the north, but we are prepared for any mission. The Air Force is maintaining its maximum strength against the Lebanese sector, against Hezbollah. Yahya Sinwar made a mistake and determined the fate of Hamas and Gaza. If Nasrallah makes a mistake - he will determine Lebanon's fate."
