IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari spoke today (Monday) with Sky News Arabic, discussing Israel's view of recent developments in Syria and its attitude towards the ceasefire in Lebanon.

During the interview, Hagari said that Iran was sending dozens of reinforcement from among pro-Iranian militias and members of the IRGC to Syria as well as weapons, and that "we will prevent Iranian weapons" from reaching Syria.
