Israel army chief says Lebanon fighting could take 'many' days

Israel's military chief Eyal Zamir said fighting against Hezbollah, which began early Monday, could take "many" more days.

"We have launched an offensive campaign against Hezbollah," Zamir said in a video shared by the military on Monday, hours after rocket fire claimed by Hezbollah prompted a wave of Israeli strikes on Lebanon. "We must be prepared for several days of fighting, many."
