Just before the ceasefire with Hezbollah took effect, the IDF says it carried out a special operation in southern Lebanon during which troops seized control of a strategic ridge.
The Israeli Air Force's elite Shaldag unit landed at the so-called Cristofani Ridge, several kilometers north of Mount Hermon, and established control in the area.
The military says the special forces landed in the area just minutes before the ceasefire took effect.
IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, who approved the raid, observed the operation alongside IAF chief Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar at the IAF's command center.

Media is too big

Hezbullah released phenomenal footage of a drone dropping a bomb at Israeli forces operating an artillery unit deep in south Lebanon
Soldier ran away a mere seconds and suffered injuries.
Had been multiple drones been active, the whole unit would have been wiped out in major success for Hezbullah.
However drone and FPV utilizations has been very shy
This took place in Al-Bayada

You can win a war during hostilities yet lose it during negotiation
You can survive a war but the fall for demise during ceasefire talks
Iran's survival was how it won this war. It didn't win a clear military victory in terms of military. This is not something simple when you fight the greatest power in history without any contender. This is major success that is unrivalled.
However the details in the fine print are what matters because those who attacked Iran can again attack one day.
As for Lebanon, yeah it's murky and not good at all. IDF presence in south Lebanon is a big meh..they can be forced out eventually
The risk here is a ceasefire that they continue to demolish towns in and the wipe out the place where more than 200,000 live and turn the area into a polluted wasteland
Then at the same time the Lebanese state persue talks with Israel for peace as the dog hinted tonight and said he is ready to meet and go anywhere to secure peace.
Peace with Israel after all it did. Lebanon is losing an opportunity to tie it's fate to a generational deal between the U.S and Iran
Why is it not doing it? Because defeating Hezbullah and destroying it is a task more loved by Lebanese than by Israel
That Lebanese state and others hate Hezbullah more than Israel. That working with this Iran-Us deal will protect Hezbullah and this is something they don't want

After Israel went nuts after being shocked by Trump's Public statement that they are no longer allowed to attack Lebanon, the Trump administration issued a clarification.
Israel can attack in self defense and there is no limit to what self defense can be defined. It can be a new war under the pretext of self defense.
❗️A U.S. official clarifies Trump's Lebanon comments: “The President’s ceasefire agreement between Lebanon and Israel clearly states that Israel will not carry out any offensive military operations against Lebanese targets but preserves its right to self-defense against planned, imminent, or ongoing attacks"

This is a ceasefire that the IDF wants to have the Lebanese state and army fight on its behalf to disarm Hezbullah after the IDF acknowledged clearly that the IDF reserves are exhausted and the IDF is incapable of invading all of Lebanon to disarm every town and village
The current lines of occupation are similar to the 1980's excluding some important area they didn't enter.
The IDF ground invasion is pathetic, a few km into Lebanon against towns they invaded and attacked and levelled in the 2024 and softened in the support front that sit under high ridges the IDF sits in (in Israel) after proactive attacks and depopulation for 15 months.
Hezbullah didn't do as good as you would want to see Israel defeated as. But they did all what is humanly possible and excelled under whatever harsh condition there was and still is
The IDF says the ceasefire will allow it to fortify the occupation in the current area to protect Israel from ATGMs attacks (this is why we need dozens of FPVs)
The IDF will demolish towns and build bases inside Lebanon as a precaution that the Lebanese state will not be able to disarm Hezbullah
If the Lebanese state fails and occupation stays, resistance acts and war happens again
Do you guys understand the circle of events here?

Jews are celebrating the demolition of towns.
Curse anyone who wants to distinguish between Zionism and Judaism. Had there been any different, we would have been action and voices against these crimes

The so-called ground invasion to the Litani river.
The IDF fights civilians before it even fights combatants and its warfare's doctrine involves punishment more than it involves defeat of the enemy as a first goal
Fighting the IDF is a costly task and worse under current conditions. Idk what the future holds...we will see
I hope to see the day the Jews suffer for their crimes here.

Demolitions are ongoing in many towns all through the night and this morning
A neighborhood after a neighborhood in a very heinous Israeli war crime
Houses that we will be begging someone to fund to rebuild when they should have not been allowed to be demolished!
The cunt Lebanese president and PM have no comments ofc. The Lebanese army is silent.
Again, a new drone strike happened in Lebanon near Hadatha. It injured a Syrian laborer
