    "Hezbollah attacked three Israeli border sites earlier on Monday as part of its daily operations against Israel in support of the resistance in Gaza. ".

    So it somehow makes sense that Isreal is unhappy.

      I think these new IDF strikes are the furthest from the border in a while. Most of the skirmishes have been happening literally on the border (as you quote), not a few kilometers away from it.

        Seems so. Maybe they want to set a warning or something like that…

          No reason for escalation, though. You’d think the IDF would want to keep the issue on the northern border contained as they commit so many forces to Gaza.

            No, absolutely not. Who knows what strategy they have.

                  idk we have two carrier strike groups literally right there, I’m sure they feel quite confident that if push comes to shove we’ll bail em out
