Netanyahu says Israeli forces have crossed south Lebanon's Litani River

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Friday that Israeli forces had crossed Lebanon's Litani River, which runs around 30 kilometers north of the countries' shared border.

"Our forces have crossed the Litani; they have moved up to the commanding terrain. We are operating in Beirut, in the Bekaa, across the entire front and are hitting Hezbollah head on," he said during a visit to troops near the border, according to a video released by his office.
