 Current Situation:

  • Israel's focus has shifted to its northern border with Lebanon after almost a year of war in Gaza.

  • Massive bombardments by Israel in Lebanon have targeted Hezbollah, killing at least 700 people and displacing over 100,000.

  • Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah's Secretary-General, was killed in the attacks.

  • The strikes followed explosions of pagers and walkie-talkies in Lebanon, affecting hundreds of Hezbollah fighters.

  • Despite calls for a ceasefire by the U.S. and France, Israel refused, continuing its operations.

Hezbollah's Background:

  • Formed in 1982 as a Shia resistance organization with support from Iran’s IRGC after Israel’s invasion of Lebanon.

  • Initially aimed to force the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) out of Lebanon.

  • Hezbollah developed a political, military, and social network deeply rooted in Lebanese society, supported by Iran.

Reason for Israel-Hezbollah Conflict:

  • Hezbollah’s primary objective is resistance against Israel, including the destruction of the "Zionist entity" as outlined in its manifesto.

  • The group claims credit for forcing Israel to end its occupation of southern Lebanon in 2000.

  • The latest conflict was triggered by Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, 2023

  • Hezbollah fired rockets into Israel in solidarity with Palestinians, prompting Israel's bombardment of Lebanon.

Hezbollah's Military Capability:

  • Hezbollah is a highly armed guerrilla army with short, medium, and long-range missiles, artillery rockets, anti-tank missiles, and other conventional weapons.

  • Despite its weaponry, Hezbollah’s conventional power is not a match for Israel, which is backed by the U.S. and possesses nuclear capabilities.

  • Nasrallah, Hezbollah’s assassinated leader, is credited with building the group's strength.

Israel's Objectives:

  • Israel aims to degrade Hezbollah’s capabilities and remove them from the border area.

  • After a year of fighting in Gaza, Israel has not achieved its objectives of destroying Hamas and freeing hostages.

  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces political pressure, making a ceasefire difficult to accept without achieving a perceived victory.

Future Prospects:

  • Israel has ruled out a ceasefire on the Lebanese border and escalated the conflict with Hezbollah.

  • There is uncertainty over whether Israel will launch a ground invasion of Lebanon.

  • The conflict risks escalating into an all-out war, depending on Hezbollah and Iran’s response to the killing of Nasrallah.
