Against the backdrop of the cease-fire with Iran, Israeli Army Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir said that "despite the phenomenal achievements, we must stand firm. There are many challenges ahead of us. We must remain focused, there is no time to rest on our laurels." The Times of Israel reported that.

"We have completed an important chapter, but the campaign against Iran is not over. We are entering a new phase that will build on the achievements of the current operation. We have set Iran's nuclear project back years, and the same goes for its missile program. Now the focus is back on Gaza, on bringing the hostages home and overthrowing Hamas rule," he adds.
