No promises this will be Israel’s ‘last war’, says Israeli foreign minister

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said while Israel’s “enemies” can still fire at it, they do not pose an “existential threat”.

“We will need, in the future as well, to remain vigilant against our enemies’ plots,” he said. “We do not promise that this will be ‘the last war’.”
