Israeli military spokesman gives update, warns Hezbollah
"We are currently striking Hamas in its entirety," Israel Defense Forces Lt. Col. Peter Lerner told ABC News "This Week" co-anchor Martha Raddatz on Sunday.
"We did not ask for this war, but we will win it," he said.
Lerner also had a message for Hezbollah.
"I would highly recommend that Hezbollah watch very closely what is happening to Hamas and the organization in Gaza as we speak," he said. "They should be very cautious of crossing that threshold, because we are determined to defend the state of Israel."
Israeli forces have been engaging in skirmishes with the Lebanese militant group along Israel's northern border with Lebanon in the days since Hamas' surprise attack on Israel from Gaza on Oct. 7.
