Jewish Home Party Chairman and Cabinet Member Naftali Bennett has congratulated the Israel Defense Forces and its commanders "on excellent intelligence work" to locate terror tunnels dug by Hezbollah along Israel's border with Lebanon "and the engineering activity that began - and will continue for as long as necessary - in order to destroy them."

Writing on Twitter, Bennett noted, "Hezbollah has long dug terrorist tunnels into Israel. These tunnels could, at one time, endanger the residents of the north. The exposure and destruction of the tunnels is vital and necessary."
