Israeli Special Forces Launch Raids Into Lebanon Ahead of Expected Ground Incursion
Israeli special forces have been carrying out small, targeted raids into southern Lebanon, gathering intelligence and probing ahead of an expected broader ground incursion, people familiar with the matter said.
The raids, which have included entering Hezbollah’s tunnels located along the border, have occurred recently as well as over the past months, part of the effort by Israel to degrade Hezbollah’s capabilities along the border dividing Israel and Lebanon, the people said. The timing of any ground action could change, the people said.
