Exploding Pagers!! Did Israel just blow the dicks off Hezbollah fighters?

Hezbollah struck back, in a typical terror attack. Man drives bus into a crowd. 15 critically injured and dozen more with various injuries in Tel Aviv. They don't go after military or political targets they attack innocent people.





And, totally unrelated to attacks, it appears that the head of the terror regime, who is the actual ruler of Iran, may be gravely ill. Multiple sources, including the NYTimes, are reporting similar stories about a serious health condition. Having him take himself out, preferably by 'natural causes' during a retaliation strike from Israel, miles away from his location, could be enough to get the Iranian people to start to march for their own freedom???





And the media is now being brought into Southern Lebanon's war zones. These are the zones where the United Nations was charged with PREVENTING Hezbollah from operating. These are areas where the United Nations Peacekeepers had permanent encampments to observe and deter the Hezbollah terrorists. These are the areas where the United Nations Peacekeepers were supposed to patrol to keep the area demilitarized. What good is the United Nations?




And this is what Israel does after it finds and empties those terror tunnels.

Meanwhile, there are many in Lebanon that are warning Israel not to trust the Lebanese Defense Forces.

Posts like this on X are not uncommon.

There are many factions inside Lebanon and a lot of support inside Lebanon for Israel. But the government was infiltrated by Iranian backed Hezbollah.

 
Every hostage released.
5,000,000 USD to every hostage and every dead hostage family.
Let Israel into every cave to destroy it.
Give israel every weapon they have.
Assign Mosad agents to every neighborhood for 100% monitoring of the area.

In other words, no peace until yer all dead and with your virgins

Israeli commando, arriving by small boats, 70+ miles north of the ground offensive area in Lebanon, come on shore and kidnap the naval commander of Hezbollah in a flash raid on his home.

Lebanon may well descend into its own civil war as the government was infiltrated by Hezbollah, the population seems mostly supportive of kicking out Hezbollah, but Hezbollah has many allies inside the government.

IDF is claiming now they have killed 3000 Hezbollah fighters since the start of their retaliation strikes.



Israeli commandos nab top Hezbollah naval operative in north Lebanon raid

Lebanese minister argues Imad Amhaz is captain of civilian ships; military says he was taken to Israel for questioning on terror group’s naval operations​

 
Apparently the Israeli Defense Forces have some more clean up to do in Southern Lebanon.

A heavy barrage of missiles, fired by Hezbollah, from Souther Lebanon has just hit the news.





 
Hezbollah rocket attacks have been greatly diminished by the I.D.F.

This morning, in another of a series of much smaller attacks, a rocket hit a kindergarten in Israel. Rather than waiting until nightfall, the I.D.F. sent fighter jets into the Hezbollah stronghold in the suburbs of Beirut and demolished a few known Hezbollah buildings.



 
Hezbollah with a "lucky" shot, hits a residential building in Tel Aviv with a heavy missile.

This will lead to a massive retaliation by the IDF, which has reportedly destroyed 80% of their missile inventory and totally destroyed the Iranian air defense systems.

Hezbollah members, if they are smart enough to understand what they did, should probably flee to some sympathetic nation in Europe or perhaps America, where college students will take pity on them.

 
Translation of this post from the UN terrorist relief agency:


Hamas looted 97 of the trucks containing aid and we blame Israel for not delivering the aid to the people who overwhelming elected, and support Hamas to represent them.

Ceasefire set for Wednesday morning.

But very conditional on actions of Hezbollah. And warnings to Iran, and every one of its proxy groups.

Israeli Cabinet Has Approved A Ceasefire In Lebanon

Update(1315ET): After months of heavy fighting which has included airstrikes and an IDF ground invasion of Lebanon, it finally looks official. Israel's Channel 12 and others are reporting Tuesday evening (local time) that the Israeli cabinet has approved a ceasefire in Lebanon.
In announcing the ceasefire, Netanyahu called out both Iran and Syria's Assad. He stressed that Israel is "Determined to prevent Iran from having nuclear arms" and that Assad is "playing with fire" in his coordination with the Islamic Republic and Hezbollah. The prime minister also stressed that Hezbollah will be attacked if its fighters break the deal. Netanyahu added that the ceasefire deal means Israel will now focus on the Iranian threat. He pledged that all Israeli citizens in the north will be able to return to their homes.
"We were able to achieve many of our goals during this war," he said. The ceasefire is expected to take effect Wednesday. Jerusalem Post writes, "Presidents Biden and Macron will announce the deal during the night, with the alleged agreement set to take effect at 10 a.m. tomorrow."
Some Lebanese continue to have doubts that it will actually take effect or hold...
An Al Jazeera correspondent in Lebanon observes, "People in Lebanon were waiting for this speech. Despite the fact Netanyahu was talking about the Israelis ceasing the ceasefire any time they want, people will be cherry-picking the positives here." According to more:
The Israeli prime minister talked about a "paradigm shift in security for Israel". He mentioned every adversary in the Arab world you can think of, and he made it clear the ceasefire was done on their terms and according to their timing.
There is some truth to that. However, there are two conflicts being fought in Lebanon: there is the massive air campaign and Israel has wreaked devastating havoc across the country; but there’s also the ground incursion near the border in the south.
President Biden is expected to take credit for putting together the proposal which has been agreed upon. . .
 
So to get the conversation started, President Trump suggested deporting all the Palestinians to other nations and turn GAZA into a resort city. Outrage from all over that. But all of a sudden Egypt steps up with a peace proposal. And the UAE. And the Arab league. And now we have this . . .

Mind you most of these are pointless. The Palestinian Authority is very similar, and radical, and armed, like Hamas. So not a bunch of peaceniks looking for real peace. But at least people are talking and trying to move to some sort of peace.

MEANWHILE, Israel keeps targeting the HAMAS and HEZBOLLAH leadership. Just like Whack-a-Mole. One pops up, they blow him up. Another jumps in to replace the dead terrorist and then that one is eliminated.

 
Pulling up an old thread because this is really part of the same series of events.

Israel is now offering to pull out of southern Lebanon after Lebanon apparently is looking to disarm Hezbollah.

It should be noted, Lebanon used to be a Christian majority country and a generally friendly northern neighbor of Israel. Hezbollah infiltrated Lebanon, largely due to Iran's interference. Eventually the population of muslims grew to the point that Hezbollah infiltrated the elected government of Lebanon, members of Hezbollah joined the Lebanese military. So while neither the Lebanese government nor the military were dominated by Hezbollah, both were generally sympathetic toward Hezbollah and increasingly belligerent toward Israel. Many citizens in Lebanon longed for the cooperation to return between the two nations.

Now it looks like there may be more of a return to some sort of detent. Lebanon is not looking to normalize relations with Israel at this point but this is certainly good news.



Israel Offers to Withdraw from Lebanon After ‘Momentous Decision’ to Disarm Hezbollah

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu extended an olive branch to Lebanon on Monday, reacting positively to a decision earlier this month by the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah.
The Iranian-backed group was decimated by Israel last fall, after Hezbollah attacked Israel with missiles, rockets, and drones for months following the Hamas terror attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.
Hezbollah was already supposed to be disarmed under previous United Nations Security Council resolutions, but the Lebanese Armed Forces and the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) did nothing.
In the wake of the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon late last year, the Lebanese government was finally able to elect a president and began, under U.S. pressure, to move toward ending Hezbollah’s armed presence.
However, the process of disarmament appeared stalled, and Israel continued to launch attacks against Hezbollah when the terror group appeared to move weapons into position — as allowed by the ceasefire.
In a statement issued by the Prime Minister’s Office on Monday, Netanyahu said:
Israel acknowledges the significant step taken by the Lebanese Government, under the leadership of President Aoun and Prime Minister Salam. The recent decision by the Council of Ministers to work towards the disarmament of Hezbollah by the end of 2025 was a momentous decision. It marks a crucial opportunity for Lebanon to reclaim its sovereignty and restore the authority of its state institutions, military, and governance — free from the influence of non-state actors.
In light of this important development, Israel stands ready to support Lebanon in its efforts to disarm Hezbollah and to work together towards a more secure and stable future for both nations. If the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) take the necessary steps to implement the disarmament of Hezbollah, Israel will engage in reciprocal measures, including a phased reduction of IDF presence in coordination with the US-led security mechanism.
Now is the time for both Israel and Lebanon to move forward in a spirit of cooperation, focusing on the shared objective of disarming Hezbollah and promoting the stability and prosperity of both nations.
Lebanon has said that it will not seek a formal peace and normalization agreement with Israel, but that could change.
