Israel will not win against Hezbollah in Lebanon: Washington Post report
GAZA: Israel will likely not succeed in winning the fight with Hezbollah in Lebanon as it invades Gaza because its forces would be stretched too thin, the Washington Post reports.
Citing the assessment from from the US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), the report says the Biden administration officials have “privately” warned Israel against entering direct conflict with Hezbollah.
It also cited unnamed officials as saying Israel’s military has targeted “US-funded and trained Lebanese Armed Forces” more than 30 times since the Gaza war began.
“US officials are concerned that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may see an expanded fight in Lebanon as key to his political survival amid domestic criticism,” the news report adds.
