TEL AVIV, ISRAEL – In a swift and decisive move, Israel has launched Operation Northern Arrows, a military operation aimed at targeting Hezbollah militia positions in Lebanon. The operation, which began in the early hours of Tuesday morning, has sent shockwaves throughout the region.
According to sources within the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), the operation was launched in response to increased Hezbollah activity along the border, including the launch of several rockets into Israeli territory. The IDF has characterized the operation as a necessary measure to protect Israeli national security and defend against what it perceives as Iranian-backed aggression.
"We have been monitoring Hezbollah’s increasingly aggressive behavior, and today we took decisive action to protect our citizens and ensure the security of our state," said a senior Israeli military official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Initial reports indicate that Israeli forces have launched a series of airstrikes against Hezbollah targets, including military infrastructure and key command centers. The Israeli military has also deployed additional troops to the border, with reports of armored units and special forces units engaged in ground operations.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah has vowed to retaliate against Israel’s actions, with the militia’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, warning that the operation will have severe consequences for Israel.
"Israel will pay a heavy price for its aggression against the Lebanese people and against the resistance," Nasrallah said in a statement.
The situation remains tense, with both sides issuing warnings and threats. As the situation continues to develop, we will provide updates and analysis.

It has already started, it even got a code name Operation Northern Arrows. It’s no longer mere exchange of fires, tit-for-tat. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/09/24/israel-hamas-war-lebanon-strikes-latest-news/ Do you think if IDF has already decided to enter Lebanon (boots on the ground) ?
-
I heard reports of casualties from Lebanese Health Ministry. Anyone know if this ministry is independent of Hezbollah ? And how reliable are their numbers ? They reported almost 500 killed.
-
It has been reported Israel has asked people in Lebanon from targeted areas to evacuate. Do we know if the Lebanese government echoed the same advice, evacuate from the targeted areas ? Do we know if Hezbollah are also recommending evacuation for civilians from these areas ? Seem images of people in cars evacuating.

At least for now, the targets seems to be in Hezbollah areas. https://www.usatoday.com/story/graphics/2024/09/23/lebanon-israel-hezbollah-attacks-map/75348737007/ predominantly in South Lebanon. Do you think the non-Hezbollah areas Lebanon will be safe from Israel bombardment ? If yes, for how long would the rest of Lebanon be safe ? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lebanon_Jul06.png

It will go just as it did last time.
Israel pummeling any area, any hospital, killing professors, doctors -anyone else here remember in 81 when the Israelis dragged Beirut doctors down the street executing them as they walked? Just me? Oh ok.
Israel knows how weak Lebanon is following the last war, the economic collapse, the banks failing this is just a a cowardly way to try to expand their aggression and their borders.
When they actually pick on someone their own size it will be interesting.
Can we stop calling every thing Arrow? It’s cringe.
IDF hit 1,300 Hezbollah targets yesterday. They have good intelligence about where Hezbollah stores weapons systems.
This is how it starts. The Doomsday Clock is correct. 90 seconds to midnight ….
This will go just about as well as it did in 2006
