The LBC television channel said that an Arab country without
mentioning its name or source told Hezbollah officials in a confidential
message about Israel’s planned attack on Lebanon with the aim to create chaos
in the country.
Israeli media have also reported the movements of the
Zionist forces along Lebanon’s southern border, saying thousands of soldiers
who left Gaza have reached the areas along Lebanon and hundreds of tanks also
moved towards Lebanon.
Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported, on its Ynet website,
noticing a movement of the Radwan towards the north, saying that successful
chances of military and political efforts to withdraw Hezbollah from the border
are on the rise.
Israeli Channel 12 claimed that half of the Radwan force on
the border has already left its place due to Israeli military activity.
Itamar Ben Gvir, a far-right Israeli minister, in an
interview with Channel 14 on January 24 also acknowledged the regime’s plan,
saying the attack of the Zionist army on Lebanon's Hezbollah and the
continuation of the war against the Gaza Strip will keep going.
A few days after the launch of the Israeli war on Gaza on
October 7, Lebanon's Hezbollah was the first resistance group to officially
join the Al-Aqsa storm operation by carrying out attacks Israeli targets in the
occupied Palestinian territories.
Hezbollah and the Israeli regime have been exchanging
artillery and rocket fire almost on a daily basis over the past three months.
The Israeli reports added that Hezbollah had withdrawn its
forces to the north, which brought calm to the residents of the northern towns,
signaling a possible return to their homes. However, the group's missile
bombing reached about 30 kilometers into the Israeli territories, which
restored tension.
They noted that the Israeli army insists on responding to
the attacks, threatening that continued bombing would lead to war similar to
that in Gaza.
According to political sources, the Israeli extreme right is
still demanding to seize the opportunity to recruit reserve forces to expand
the front with Hezbollah.
But the US administration curbs these intentions and insists
on preventing another front with Lebanon because it is convinced it will lead
to a regional war that threatens a global war.
The US administration confirmed that President Joe Biden's
Envoy, Amos Hochstein, is still making unremitting efforts to reach a truce.
The sources said Hochstein believes that the withdrawal of
the Radwan Forces is a positive indication that there is room for progress
towards a political agreement that includes a ceasefire and the formation of a
security area that prevents slipping into war.
However, the Israelis fear that Hezbollah is seeking an
agreement that could sedate Israel for a few months and then choose the time to
launch a war similar to the Hamas attack.
They assert that Hezbollah is much stronger than Hamas and
possesses combat experience and high-quality weapons that pose a severe threat
to Israel. Therefore, a pre-emptive strike should be directed against it.
