Israeli officials told the Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (KAN) that if an agreement is not reached soon with Hezbollah a war is inevitable.
The expected escalation in Lebanon comes at a time that Israel continues to sink deeper into a long attrition war in Gaza, where massacres, but also fierce Resistance continue.
According to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, 22,600 Palestinians have been killed, and 57,910 wounded in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza starting on October 7. Palestinian and international estimates say that the majority of those killed and wounded are women and children.
