Israel Approves Plans for Offensive in Lebanon; Rising Tensions with Hezbollah

Israel's military announced on Tuesday that it has approved plans for an offensive in Lebanon, as tensions with the Hezbollah group escalate. According to a military statement, Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin, head of Israel's Northern Command, and Maj. Gen. Oded Basiuk, chief of the Operations Directorate, assessed and approved the "operational plans for an offensive in Lebanon." The statement also noted decisions on "accelerating the readiness of the forces on the ground."

This development follows months of cross-border attacks between Hezbollah and Israeli forces. Earlier, Hezbollah released a video showing footage gathered by one of its reconnaissance drones, detailing various military locations in northern Israel. The nine-minute video highlighted sites such as Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, air defense locations, Iron Dome batteries, and David’s Sling military systems. It also listed strategic locations in the city of Haifa, including docks, airports, a naval base, a submarine pier, and Israeli missile boats.

Tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border have intensified amid these cross-border attacks, coinciding with Israel's ongoing offensive on the Gaza Strip. This conflict, which began after an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas, has resulted in the deaths of more than 37,300 people in Gaza since last October.
