Israel has informed the United States that it is conducting limited ground operations targeting Hezbollah infrastructure near its border with Lebanon. This marks a shift from previous airstrikes and assassinations against Hezbollah leaders. U.S. officials noted that the positioning of Israeli troops suggests a potential ground incursion could happen soon. This development follows two weeks of intense military actions against the Iranian-backed group. The conflict involves multiple regions, including Gaza and the West Bank, raising concerns about broader involvement from the U.S. and Iran. The U.S. continues to advocate for a ceasefire while acknowledging the complexities of military pressure.
