The Israeli government says it has authorised its forces to advance into Lebanon and “take control of additional areas” to prevent Hezbollah using them to fire into Israeli border settlements as part of Operation Roaring Lion, Jerusalem’s counterpart of the American Operation Epic Fury.

Israel is reacting to the decision “of the Hezbollah terror organization to join the campaign of the Iranian terror regime” and is moving forward to occupy land used to launch attacks against Israeli border communities, they said on Tuesday morning. Air raid sirens sounded in the north of Israel again on Tuesday morning as Hezbollah rocket attacks, launched from inside Lebanon, struck the Galilee area, The Times of Israel reported.

The Israeli military captured a senior Islamic terrorist in an overnight raid in southern Lebanon. Arab media reports identified the nabbed terrorist as Atwi Atwi, a top operative of al-Jama’a al-Islamiyya terror organization.

“The Israel Defense Forces said Monday that troops arrested a senior terrorist from the Sunni Jamaa Islamiya organization during an overnight raid in southern Lebanon,” Israel’s Ynetnews reported Monday.

Al-Jama’a al-Islamiyya is a Muslim Brotherhood-linked jihadist group that wages war on Israel alongside the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror militia. The terrorist group has a significant support base in Lebanon. According to Alma, “Al-Jamaah al-Islamiyah represents a sizable portion of Lebanese Sunnis and is the second-largest Sunni movement.”

The Israeli army struck an area of southern Lebanon on Sunday after issuing an evacuation warning, Lebanese state media said, with the military saying it attacked Hezbollah infrastructure.

The strikes came days after the Lebanese military said it had completed disarming Hezbollah south of the Litani River, the first phase of a nationwide plan, though Israel has called those efforts insufficient.

Lebanon’s official National News Agency (NNA) reported that “enemy warplanes launched more than 10 raids on the threatened location” in the town of Kafr Hatta, which lies north of the Litani, noting “significant damage” to buildings there.

The Israeli military said it was “striking Hezbollah infrastructure in several areas” shortly after issuing an evacuation warning for Kafr Hatta.

“ENCOURAGING ANNOUNCEMENTS”

Lebanon’s army said Thursday it had “achieved the objectives of the first phase” of its plan to disarm Hezbollah, covering the area south of the Litani River – around 30km from the Israeli border – with the intention to extend it to the rest of the country.

Israel said the efforts were encouraging but not enough.

“The ceasefire agreement … states clearly, Hezbollah must be fully disarmed,” the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement.

“Efforts made toward this end by the Lebanese government and the Lebanese armed forces are an encouraging beginning, but they are far from sufficient,” it added.

Israel Eliminates Hezbollah Chief of Staff – PJ Media

Israel has confirmed a successful strike on the murderous jihadi who was Hezbollah’s chief of staff and reportedly wanted by the United States for his bloody activities.

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) issued a statement on X confirming Tatbai’s elimination and explaining why it was necessary to take him out. And with Hamas saying they’re champing at the bit to start fighting again, hopefully this strike will help serve as temporary deterrent to the countless Muslim jihadis eternally obsessed with destroying Israel.

The MFA began its statement, “Israel has eliminated today in Beirut the Chief of Staff of Hezbollah, who had worked to rebuild and expand Hezbollah’s military and terrorist capabilities.”

Following a meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun in Beirut, Tom Barrack also said Washington would seek an economic proposal for post-war reconstruction in the country.

“I think the Lebanese government has done their part. They’ve taken the first step,” said Barrack. “Now what we need is for Israel to comply with that equal handshake.”

“Following Hezbollah’s extensive use of UAVs as a central component of its terrorist attacks on the state of Israel, the terrorist organisation is operating to increase production of UAVs for the next war,” the military statement said, calling the activities “a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon”.

Under the truce, Hezbollah fighters were to withdraw north of the Litani river, about 30km from the border, and dismantle their military posts to the south.

Israel was to pull all its troops from Lebanon, but it has kept them in five positions it deems “strategic” along the frontier.

The Lebanese army has been deploying in the south and removing Hezbollah infrastructure there, with prime minister Salam saying Thursday that it had dismantled “more than 500 military positions and arms depots” in the area.

Israel Will Ignore Calls for Lebanon Ceasefire

pgnewser November 13, 2024

Even before President Trump won the 2024 election, Israel was signaling it was not in the mood to entertain calls for a ceasefire in Lebanon. Now, Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz, who replaced former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant after Prime Minister Netanyahu fired him for the second time, is doubling down.

He is claiming Hezbollah has been defeated, but more work needs to be done in Lebanon to secure the victory, meaning no ceasefire proposal will be considered until the work is done. Katz said of the decision not to pursue a ceasefire that Israel had learned its lessons and “Now it is our job to continue to put pressure on order to bring about the fruits of that victory.”
