Hezbollah: Israel prepares for ground invasion in Lebanon
The Israeli army chief has indicated that the military is preparing for a possible ground invasion in Lebanon.
CNN reports that Herzi Halevi, the head of Israel’s military, told troops on Wednesday that its airstrikes in Lebanon this week were aiming to destroy Hezbollah’s infrastructure and to pave the way for Israeli forces to be on the ground.
According to the report, Halevi said the goal of the invasion is to allow the tens of thousands of Israelis who have been displaced by cross-border fire in the north of the country to return to their homes.
Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu echoed same when he said that his country “will not rest” until the northern residents can return home.
Israel’s top general in the north, Ori Gordin, warned the military “must be fully prepared for maneuvers.”
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) also said it was calling up two reserve brigades because of the conflict with Hezbollah.
