Speaking to Fox News, Trump said Israel has been unable to \u201cput Hezbollah away.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am disappointed Israel cannot put Hezbollah away,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Trump also criticized Israel\u2019s military approach in Lebanon. \u201cThey can\u2019t do anything without knocking buildings down,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The US president suggested that Syria\u2019s leadership could be more effective in dealing with the group.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am close to giving this to Syria,” Trump said in terms of dealing with Hezbollah.<\/p>\n
Trump did not elaborate on what role Syria could play or provide further details on the remarks.<\/p>\n
