Israel Conducts Limited Ground Operations Against Hezbollah in Lebanon
Israel has informed the United States it is conducting limited ground operations against Hezbollah infrastructure near the Lebanon border. This development comes after two weeks of airstrikes and heightened regional tensions, including the assassination of Hezbollah's leader, raising concerns about broader conflict involvement.
Israel has informed the United States it is conducting limited ground operations focused on Hezbollah infrastructure in Lebanon near the border with Israel, according to the State Department.
State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller confirmed that these operations are targeting Hezbollah and remain limited.
Signs have emerged that Israel may soon send ground troops into Lebanon following two weeks of airstrikes and the assassination of Hezbollah's leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.
A U.S. official suggested that a ground incursion could be imminent based on Israeli troop movements.
The conflict, spanning from Gaza to Yemen, has escalated concerns over potential U.S. and Iranian involvement.
The U.S. supports a ceasefire but acknowledges that military pressure could either aid or hinder diplomatic efforts.
