The Lebanese-Israeli border is closer to war than it has been thus far in the conflict between Israel and Hamas, as the Palestinian terrorist group claimed responsibility for rockets fired from southern Lebanon at the Israeli city of Kiryat Shemona on Thursday.
Hezbollah today said it had mounted 19 simultaneous strikes on IDF positions on Thursday using guided missiles, artillery and other weapons. The United States pushed to prevent regional spillover from the Gaza War and to secure an agreement for a humanitarian “pause,” as US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was scheduled Friday to land in Israel for the second time since the fighting began on October 7. In short, with each passing day Israel gets in deeper and deeper.

Russia at the United Nations said that ‘Israel has no right to defend itself’, and it’s rumored that their elite Wagner Group is supplying air defense missile system to Hezbollah. There sure is a lot of ‘proxy wars’ happening at the moment. How much longer until they tire of using proxies and just go at it face to face? That’s where everything is rapidly heading. Thus far, Israel has committed half its air force to routing out Hamas in Gaza, how much will it take to also do battle with Hezbollah in Lebanon?
Lebanon Border Closer to War; Israel Encircles Hamas in Gaza City
FROM BREITBART NEWS: Hamas is based in Gaza but also has a presence in Palestinian communities in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) and in other countries, including southern Lebanon, as well as in more distant countries like Qatar, where the Hamas leadership resides.
Hezbollah, a proxy of Iran, controls southern Lebanon (and much of the Lebanese government as well). It has threatened to enter the war and has fired on Israeli positions, killing several soldiers and forcing the evacuation of Israel’s northernmost cities. Israel has responded to each incident by striking the Hezbollah position responsible for the fire. It has also launched preemptive strikes on terrorists who have tried to fire rockets or to infiltrate into northern Israel. But thus far, a broader war has not yet erupted.
Israel has said that it will hold Hezbollah responsible for any rocket fire from southern Lebanon. Accordingly, it struck a number of Hezbollah positions on Thursday evening after several Hamas rockets caused significant damage.
In a statement on Telegram, the IDF stated: “The IDF holds the Hezbollah terrorist organization responsible for the current situation in Lebanon.”
The U.S. has moved two aircraft carriers to the eastern Mediterranean in an effort to deter Iran from opening a northern front. Meanwhile, in Gaza, the IDF said that it is on the outskirts of the city, a major hub in the northern Gaza Strip.
Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, Chief of the General Staff, said in a statement: “IDF soldiers have been operating in Gaza City and are encircling it from several different directions increasing our entries, as well as our achievements.”
