Israel Planning Massive Ground Invasion of Lebanon
- On Friday, Axios reported that Israel is planning a large-scale invasion of southern Lebanon to dismantle Hezbollah assets south of the Litani River, marking the largest military operation since the 2006 war.
- Hezbollah fired over 200 rockets into Israel in coordination with Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, prompting Israeli officials to declare an end to ceasefire prospects and necessitate a massive operation.
- While the IDF told The Jerusalem Post on Thursday it opposed a full invasion, Defense Minister Israel Katz later threatened an imminent offensive to push Hezbollah forces north and dismantle weapon depots.
- Katz, representing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, warned Lebanese President Joseph Aoun that the IDF would launch a larger invasion if the Lebanese military failed to suppress Hezbollah rocket fire on Israel.
- Despite the increased pace of drone and rocket attacks, the IDF still views Iran as the central theater of the current multifront war, treating Lebanon as a secondary front to contain Hezbollah.
