Israel bolsters military along Lebanon border as clashes with Hezbollah escalate
The Israeli military has stationed an estimated 60,000 to 80,000 troops, along with tanks and artillery, at its northern border with Lebanon. Several divisions, including elite paratroopers and reserve forces, have been deployed to support military operations to fight Hezbollah. So far, ground combat between Israeli forces and Hezbollah has escalated, with Israel clearing areas near the border while conducting air attacks deeper into Lebanon. Although Israel hasn’t confirmed its next steps, the growing intensity of daily clashes suggests further military action may follow.
