Israel is preparing for a major military response against Hezbollah in Lebanon following a devastating rocket attack that killed 12 people, including children, on a football pitch in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
The incident has dramatically increased tensions in the region, with Israel’s security cabinet poised to approve military action plans. Western intelligence sources suggest that an Israeli strike on Lebanon is likely within the next 48 hours.
Israeli officials have expressed their reluctance to engage in a full-scale war but are resolute in their decision to retaliate against Hezbollah for the deadly attack. The international community, including the United States, is actively working to mediate and prevent further escalation. US diplomats are engaging with all parties involved, urging restraint and seeking to de-escalate the situation.
Meanwhile, Lebanon’s foreign minister has issued a stark warning that a significant Israeli military operation could ignite a broader regional conflict. In response to the anticipated Israeli actions, Hezbollah has reportedly evacuated key positions in southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley, bracing for the impending strikes.
As both sides prepare for potential escalation, the international community remains on high alert, hoping to avert a broader war while grappling with the immediate consequences of the latest violence.

Only three things matter now:
Hamas must go down.
The hostages must come home.
Hezbollah must go away.โ Eylon Levy (@EylonALevy) July 28, 2024

You’re probably hearing a lot of people talk about the “danger” of an “escalation” when Israel inevitably responds to the Hezbollah rocket attack that killed 12 children and teens at a soccer game yesterday.
No.
