According to Israel’s Channel 12, the army has intensified its attacks against Hezbollah targets in preparation for a new round of conflict that could directly involve Iran. This escalation aims to:
Weaken offensive capabilities: targeting missile launch sites and weapons depots.
Neutralize support: reduce Hezbollah’s ability to support Tehran in the event of a major confrontation.
The toll of assassinations in February
In a related development, the Israeli newspaper Maariv revealed the results of operations since the beginning of February. It confirmed that the Israeli army had eliminated 12 members of Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad in Lebanon, reflecting a high rate of targeted operations.
Field operations: Division 91 in confrontation
