The Israeli military says it has approved operational plans for an offensive against Hezbollah.

The Israeli military says its Northern Command has approved operational plans for war with Lebanon.

Israel is ready for an “all-out war” in Lebanon and has plans approved for an offensive targeting Hezbollah, officials have said.

Israel and Hezbollah have been engaged in border fighting since shortly after the start of the war on Gaza, following the October 7 attacks on Israel. The confrontation is increasingly expanding, with both sides saying they are ready to go to war.

More than 400 people have been killed in Lebanon, including journalists and paramedics, over the past eight months, with 25 deaths in Israel. At least 90,000 people have been displaced in Lebanon, and more than 60,000 have been forced from their homes in northern Israel.

    Right that’s just the stock of old/obsolete/close-to-expiring munitions and equipment we’re willing to spare.

      Exactly. The US doctrine is and has been to counter two foes/theatres at once. That’s the baseline that still includes the civil defense.

      There’s a reason why the US has the largest, second largest, and fourth largest air forces in the world.

      We’re experts at logistics and palletization. We bring the war to you!
