Israel Weighs Offensive in Lebanon to Curb Hizbullah Resurgence
(Israel Hayom) Lilach Shoval - On Thursday the IDF ordered evacuations of parts of southern Lebanese towns in order to destroy weapons and materiel Hizbullah is attempting to stockpile, while trying to avoid harm to uninvolved civilians. IDF airstrikes targeted warehouses located in the heart of civilian areas. Israeli officials repeatedly stress that the principal lesson of Oct. 7 is to prevent terrorist organizations from rebuilding along Israel's borders. While Hizbullah said it plans to respond to Israeli actions, a military source said a Hizbullah reaction would actually be beneficial to Israel because it would give Israel greater legitimacy to strike additional Hizbullah targets.
