By Abdul Raouf Arnaout

JERUSALEM (AA) - Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant on Saturday said that Lebanese group Hezbollah has been paying a “heavy price” for taking part in the fighting.

“Hezbollah decided to take part in the fighting and is paying a heavy price," Galant said.

"We must prepare vigilantly for all possibilities because there are greater challenges ahead," he was quoted as saying by the Israeli Army Radio.

“We are going to flip the scale 180 degrees, the day of the attack will be remembered as the day when the final obliteration of Hamas started," Galant said.

"We are working in this direction; it will take time, and there will be a price to it," he added.

He continued: "We are in a war, there is no other option. We will act whenever necessary and we will win in the war."

In his address to Israeli soldiers on the Lebanon border, Galant said: "The challenges will be greater, and you need to take that into account. We must be ready for any situation."
