Netanyahu affirms Israel will maintain its presence in occupied Lebanese territory

15 Haziran 2026Al Jazeera

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that Israel will maintain its occupation of territories in Lebanon and Syria, regardless of a recent US deal with Iran. This statement underscores Israel's longstanding position on territorial claims in the region.
Netanyahu's remarks come amid heightened tensions and complex geopolitical dynamics involving Iran and its influence in the Middle East.
The statement comes at a time when the US is attempting to negotiate a deal with Iran, which could shift the balance of power in the region. Israel has historically been wary of Iranian influence and has consistently maintained its military presence in disputed territories.
Netanyahu's declaration reflects Israel's strategic priorities and its unwillingness to alter its territorial stance, even in the face of international negotiations. This could exacerbate tensions in the region, particularly with Iran, which may view the US deal as a challenge to its interests.
