Netanyahu vows security and development for Israel’s northern border as billions invested
Northern Israel is set to receive an additional NIS 13 billion in government investment, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged strengthened infrastructure, housing and security in border areas under sustained Hezbollah fire.
People will flock to the North; we are investing very large sums here,” Netanyahu said, comparing the expected transformation to the south. “Today, the South, which was security-challenged, has tremendous demand, tremendous growth, and tremendous prosperity, and that is exactly what will happen here as well.
Netanyahu linked that promised security to the “major struggle” Israel is waging against Hezbollah, saying the “best minds” in Israel and abroad are mobilized to “solve the drone problem” that has increasingly threatened both IDF troops and civilians.
