Israeli media: Hezbollah may initiate large-scale military campaign

The Israeli side has said that Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah fears a sudden Israeli attack on its strategic targets and may initiate a bigger military campaign than in recent months.

Hezbollah militants fail to freely enter the border area, Caliber.Az reports citing the Israeli media.

The number of missile attacks has decreased. However, Hezbollah began using numerous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Countering UAVs has become a big challenge for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) because they are relatively small.

Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant has recently said that the situation on the northern border with Lebanon will change either through a political settlement or a wide-scale military operation.

“IDF forces are preparing and continue to prepare against every threat that comes our way, both in defense and attack,” Gallant wrote on X.

Tensions have risen along Lebanon's border with Israel amid cross-border attacks between the Lebanese Hezbollah group and Israeli forces as Tel Aviv presses ahead with its deadly offensive on the Gaza Strip.
