The Israeli military assessments indicate Hezbollah can
continue launching rockets toward Israel at its current pace for an additional
one to two months, Israel’s Army Radio reported on Friday, adding that the
group still possesses an estimated stockpile of between 8,000 and 10,000
rockets.
Separately, in a statement, the Israeli military said it had
killed around 1,000 Hezbollah members over the past month, including hundreds
from the Radwan Force, the group’s elite unit, as well as several senior
commanders, noting that it “struck more than 3,500 targets across Lebanon,
including weapons depots, rocket launch platforms, and command and control
centers.”
Since the start of the expanded conflict, Hezbollah has announced carrying out more than 1,000 operations targeting Israeli military positions and forces operating in southern Lebanon, alongside near-daily rocket fire aimed at Israeli bases from the north down to Tel Aviv and Ashkelon, using ballistic and precision-guided missiles.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stressed the military “will demolish homes used by
Hezbollah in Lebanese border villages, as was done in Rafah and Khan Younis in Gaza,”vowing
to extend control over areas south of the Litani River. He added that Israel’s objective in Lebanon is to dismantle
Hezbollah’s weapons through both military and political means, “regardless of
the Iranian issue.”
Katz also stated that around 600,000 displaced Lebanese
residents “will not be allowed to return to southern Lebanon until the security
of northern Israeli communities is ensured.”
