Members phkrause Posted February 1 Author Members Share Posted February 1 Israel and Lebanon are prepping for a war neither country wants The prospect of a full-scale war between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah militia terrifies people on both sides of the border, but some see it as an inevitable fallout from Israel’s ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza. Read more. Why this matters: Such a war could be the most destructive either side has ever experienced. Israel and Hezbollah each have lessons from their last war in 2006, a monthlong conflict that ended in a draw. But both Hezbollah and the Israeli military have expanded capabilities since then — though both countries also are more fragile. Despite the rhetoric, neither side appears to want war, said Andrea Tenenti, spokesperson for the United Nations peacekeeping mission in south Lebanon. However, “a miscalculation could potentially trigger a wider conflict that would be very difficult to control,” he said. A full-scale war would likely spread to multiple fronts, escalating the involvement of Iranian proxies in Syria, Iraq and Yemen — and perhaps even draw in Iran itself. It could also drag the U.S., Israel’s closest ally, deeper into the conflict.

Members phkrause Posted February 15 Author Members Share Posted February 15 Israeli airstrikes killed 10 Lebanese civilians in a single day. Hezbollah has vowed to retaliate The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has vowed to retaliate for the deadly Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon. The death toll of the previous day was the highest of daily cross-border exchanges that have accompanied Israel’s war in Gaza. Read more. Key points: The fatalities marked a significant escalation after more than four months of daily cross-border exchanges triggered by the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. Government institutions, schools and Lebanese University were to close on Thursday in protest of the airstrikes. While most analysts believe Hezbollah and Israel have little appetite for a full-blown war, they fear that any miscalculation could trigger a major conflict. The U.S., France and other countries have dispatched diplomats in recent weeks to try to tamp down tensions on the border. Hezbollah is the Arab world’s most significant paramilitary force. Backed by Iran, its fighters have gained experience during Syria’s 13-year conflict in which they helped tip the balance of power in favor of government forces.

Members phkrause Posted May 19 Author Members Share Posted May 19 Hezbollah introduces new weapons and tactics against Israel The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah this week struck a military post in northern Israel using a drone that fired two missiles. The attack wounded three soldiers, one of them seriously, according to the Israeli military. The group has stepped up its attacks on Israel in recent weeks, particularly since the Israeli incursion into Rafah in the Gaza Strip. Read more. Why this matters: Hezbollah has regularly fired missiles across the border with Israel over the past seven months. Still, Thursday appears to have been the first successful missile airstrike it has launched from within Israeli airspace. In adapting its attacks, Hezbollah has also managed to reduce the numbers of fighters lost compared with the early weeks of the conflict. Hezbollah’s use of more advanced weaponry has allowed it to strike deeper inside Israel. The weapons include drones capable of firing missiles, explosive drones and a small type of guided missile known as Almas, or Diamond, that was used to attack the base controlling the balloon. Their use has raised alarms within the Israeli military. On Monday, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah reiterated in a speech that there will be no end to the fighting along the Lebanon-Israel border until Israel’s military operations in the Gaza Strip come to an end. Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant also vowed in a speech last week that “we will stand, we will achieve our goals, we will hit Hamas, we will destroy Hezbollah, and we will bring security.” RELATED COVERAGE ➤ US military says first aid shipment has been driven across a newly built US pier into the Gaza Strip A Palestinian converted to Judaism.
