Every blow to Hezbollah is also a blow to the Iranian axis of terror and Iran\u2019s investment in terror proxies in the region. We are prepared for every development and remain at a high level of readiness against Iran as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph-section article-body-paragraph\">He added that the IDF had killed over 7,500 terrorists since the beginning of the war, including 2,500 since the launch of Operation Roaring Lion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reservists appreciation month<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph-section article-body-paragraph\">Reflecting on June as a month to appreciate military reservists, Zamir concluded his remarks with a thank-you to the soldiers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph-section article-body-paragraph\">&#8220;I am full of gratitude for you,&#8221; said Zamir. &#8220;I am aware of the burden, the difficulty, and the price that you and your families are paying.
