Tel Aviv, Israel – The Israeli military is preparing to attack Lebanon to target Hezbollah, which has been using Lebanese territory to launch attacks on Israel. Reports of Hezbollah possessing dangerous weapons have alarmed not only Israel but also the United States.
The weapons supplied to Hezbollah by Iran are a significant concern for Israel. Despite various measures to curb the supply of arms from Iran to Hezbollah, the terrorist organisation continues to pose a serious threat to Israel. Israel’s current focus is on the Gaza Strip, where it is dealing with attacks from Hamas. However, the ongoing threat from Hezbollah could impact Israel’s defence capabilities, potentially leading to a major conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in the near future.

US deploys fighter jets
To confront Hezbollah, the United States has deployed fighter jets in the region. Hezbollah has warned against the presence of the US Navy in the area. The entry of Hezbollah into a broader conflict in the region could have significant consequences. Hezbollah possesses not only a large ground force but also a substantial stockpile of missiles, long-range rockets, and suicide drones.
Hezbollah’s influence in Syria and Iran
Hezbollah also has a significant influence in Syria and Iran, with direct ties to the Iranian regime. This connection raises concerns that a conflict between Israel and Hezbollah could escalate into a wider regional war involving multiple countries.
The situation remains tense as both Israel and Hezbollah prepare for possible escalation, with significant implications for regional stability.
