In a post, on Twitter, President Reuven Rivlin warned Lebanon over its involvement with Iran, writing:

"We warned Hezbollah not to impose Lebanon an Iranian agenda, and we warned Lebanon not to serve as a base for attacking Israel. We are not eager to fight. But the IDF is alert and ready to respond to any threat and to any scenario, the State of Israel will not stand idly by so that the citizens of Israel will continue to sleep peacefully."
