Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shared a video on Sunday with Christian soldiers serving in the IDF, amid controversy regarding the IDF's operations in Christian villages in southern Lebanon.

"I'm here in the Prime Minister's Office with an extraordinary group of young men and women. These are Christian soldiers, men and women, in the Israeli Defense Forces. They fill all the important positions in our incredible military, and they do incredible work," Netanyahu said during the video.

"This is completely contrary to what is presented outside. It's not only that Israel fights for the rights of Christians around the Middle East, but that Israel has Christian soldiers who fight for the defense of Israel and for our Christian brethren throughout the area, throughout the region, and beyond," he added.

He also explained how he was "impressed by the personal stories, their commitment, their sacrifice, their achievements," and pointed out that Israel is the one country in the Middle East where the Christian community is thriving, growing, and expanding.
