Israel intends to invade southern Lebanon to eliminate Hezbollah, following rocket attacks on Israeli territory.

Israel is preparing for a "massive invasion" in southern Lebanon, aiming to eliminate the presence of Hezbollah, according to information published by Axios. The plan includes the conquest of the southern area of the Litani River, marking the largest ground invasion since 2006. The objective is to control the territory, to push Hezbollah away from the border, and to destroy their positions and depots. This decision was made after Hezbollah launched over 200 projectiles at northern Israel. The Israeli army has begun to mobilize troops and has issued evacuation orders for residents in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem stated that his forces are ready to face a potential invasion. The campaign of Israeli attacks has led to a large number of casualties and an internal exodus in Lebanon, with nearly a million people forced to leave their homes.
