'Red line must not be Tel Aviv'
Also on Tuesday, National Unity leader Benny Gantz visited the Haifa area and its suburbs.
"Our red line must not be Tel Aviv. Just as in the South, our red line is Kerem Shalom and Sderot; in the North, our line is Metula, Shlomi, and Kiryat Shmona," Gantz said.
He added that Israel would stop fighting only when the evacuees from the North would be able to return to their homes safely.
This is a developing story.
