Recently, Hezbollah had carried out attacks in the northern areas of Israel. Due to missile attacks, a large number of Israelis had to take shelter in safe places. Now Israel’s action has been going on for the last 10 days and it has attacked large parts of Northern Lebanon. Even in the capital Beirut, the Israeli army has carried out airstrikes. Meanwhile, Israel has alleged that Hezbollah wanted to carry out a similar attack in its southern area as was carried out by Hamas on October 7. 1200 Israelis were killed in that attack, while 250 people were abducted.
Israel Defense Forces spokesman Daniel Hagari claimed on Tuesday that Hezbollah was planning to attack an Israeli border village and establish a base. Now the Israeli army is also carrying out ground attacks on Hezbollah and has raided some of its positions. Not only this, the fear of attack in its border areas is also troubling Israel. Due to this, he has appealed to the citizens not to come to the southern region by vehicles. This warning has been issued till further orders. Not only this, the Israeli Defense spokesperson also said that the attack on Israel by Hezbollah was named ‘Victory on Galilee’.
Actually, the area of Israel bordering Lebanon is called Galilee. This is a hilly area, which is very beautiful. This is where the Litani River flows. Galilee is divided into two regions, Upper Galilee and Lower Galilee. Galilee refers to all areas north of the Mount Carmel-Mount Gilboa ridge and south of the east-west stretch of the Litani River. In this way, by conquering Galilee, Hezbollah meant capturing the region. This has been claimed by Israel.
The Israeli Army said that we have decided that we will not allow an incident like October 7 to happen again. In fact, last year around 3000 Hamas fighters had entered the Israeli border by land, air and sea. In this attack they killed 1200 Israelis. Apart from this, about 251 people were taken hostage. Most of these were common citizens. Since this incident, Israel has been continuously attacking Gaza. So far, about 36,000 people have been killed in Gaza. Apart from this, Israel’s front has also opened with Hezbollah. It has even had some clashes with Houthi, a militant organization operating in Yemen.
