Een oorlog met HezBollah wordt onvermijdelijk lijkt me.
De West Bank wordt steeds gewelddadiger, de Houti vallen schepen aan met Iraanse raketten, vanuit Libanon worden steeds meer raketten en drones afgeschoten naar Israël en hoge HezBollah koppen worden met regelmaat uitgeschakeld.

Israel and Hezbollah edged closer towards full scale war on Tuesday, as the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group launched explosive drones at a key Israeli command base, declaring the attack part of its response to recent high-level Israeli assassinations in Lebanon. Hezbollah announced it had launched “a number of explosive attack drones” at the Israeli northern military command base in Safed, the first time it has targeted the site. An Israeli army spokesperson said there had been no damage or casualties.
Hezbollah has denied a claim by the Israeli military that it killed the southern Lebanon commander of Hezbollah’s aerial unit in an airstrike on Tuesday. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had killed Ali Hussein Barji, who it said had led dozens of drone attacks on Israel. But in a statement, Hezbollah said “the commander was never subjected to any assassination attempt as the enemy claimed.”
Israeli aircraft, drones and artillery struck multiple targets inside southern Lebanon, including a strike on a car during the funeral of a senior commander in the group’s elite Radwan force who had been killed the day before. Lebanon’s caretaker prime minister, Najib Mikati, said that while his country was open to negotiations, it was being threatened with war.
