Israel is ready for a major ground attack against Hezbollah in Lebanon. It has already started small ground attacks. It is continuously attacking Beirut. It has also informed America about its operation. The US State Department said that America (America’) has been informed that a limited ground operation is being carried out targeting Hezbollah’s infrastructure in Lebanon near the Israeli border.
State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told the media, “They have informed us that they are currently carrying out limited operations targeting Hezbollah infrastructure near the border.” When asked whether this limited operation is a ground operation, he said that he also thinks so. Top Hezbollah commander killed
On Monday, there were indications that Israel is ready to send ground troops to Lebanon. So far, many top Hezbollah commanders have been killed in Israeli attacks. Its leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has also been killed in an attack on Iran-backed Hezbollah militia.
Israel is determined, ready for ground attack
An American official told news agency Reuters that the position of Israeli soldiers suggests that their ground intrusion could prove to be very dangerous. After the killings of Hezbollah commanders in air strikes over the last two weeks, Israel has become even more determined and is preparing for a major ground attack.
On the other hand, the Pentagon said on Monday that the US is sending ‘a few thousand’ soldiers to the Middle East to increase security and protect Israel if needed. This statement of the US has come after Israel started a limited operation in Lebanon.
Israel is targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon
The air strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon are part of a conflict that has spread from the Palestinian territories Gaza and the occupied West Bank to Iranian-backed organizations in Yemen and Iraq. As tensions escalate, there is a growing fear that the US and Iran will also be caught in this conflict.
Matthew Miller said that the US supports a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah. Along with this, he also said that military pressure can sometimes enable diplomacy. He also warned that military pressure can sometimes lead to miscalculations and unintended consequences.
