Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz has accused Hezbollah of military cooperation with Hamas.
Gantz warned that the "actions" of Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah would lead to a powerful response by the Israeli army.
He added that Palestinian "terror" from Lebanon could endanger Lebanese citizens and lead to a "loss of control."
"Lebanon will pay the price for actions carried out from within its territory," Gantz said.
Gantz's statements come a month after Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh met with Nasrallah and Lebanese officials in Beirut and a day ahead of U.S. President Joe Biden's visit to Israel.
