Today, Gantz said that Israel has offered to help Lebanon and is discussing with its allies how to help the country. All this in exchange for the dismantling of precision missile factories and the surrendering Hezbullah's weapons.

During the visit of Chief of Staff Aviv Kohavi to Washington, he discussed the economic situation in Lebanon and the fear that chaos in Lebanon would negatively affect Israel.
