A recent statement from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) highlighted ongoing operations in southern Lebanon aimed at neutralizing threats from Hezbollah. The terrorist group has embedded itself in villages near the Israeli border, turning these areas into military strongholds, which pose a direct threat to Israeli communities.
Hezbollah’s long-standing objective, known as “Conquer the Galilee,” involves plans to invade Israeli homes and territories from these fortified positions. This strategy underscores the group’s aggressive ambitions and its continued disregard for both international law and regional stability.
Despite the intensity of these operations, the IDF has emphasized that their focus remains solely on dismantling Hezbollah’s military capabilities, not targeting the Lebanese people. The IDF has taken significant measures to avoid civilian casualties, reinforcing its commitment to ensuring the safety of Israeli citizens while minimizing harm to non-combatants in the region.
