IDF Publishes Map of Southern Lebanon Deployment
(Ynet News) Elisha Ben Kimon - The IDF on Thursday published a map showing where its forces are currently operating in southern Lebanon. The working assumption in Israel is that the U.S. memorandum of understanding with Iran will not lead to a final agreement. A second working assumption is that Israel must preserve its hold in Lebanon at least until after the U.S. midterm elections in November. IDF forces are deployed in some areas as far as 10 km. inside Lebanese territory, and in other areas about 6 km. deep. For now, local residents are not expected to return to the villages where the IDF maintains control. The military is also preserving its freedom of action against threats beyond the security line.
