Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz confirmed on Thursday that Israeli fighter jets flew over Beirut during the funeral ceremony for Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, sending a sharp warning to those threatening Israel.

"Israeli Air Force aircraft currently flying over Beirut, over the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah, convey a clear message: Those who threaten to destroy Israel and attack Israel, it will be their end," Katz said in a statement.

"You will specialize in funerals, and we will in victories," he added.
