Israeli Air Raids in Lebanon Reminiscent of 2006 War

(Ynet News) Lior Ben-Ari - Sources in southern Lebanon told Asharq Al-Awsat that there has been a significant shift: the pace of Israeli attacks in the sector was heavier, and Israel primarily relied on aerial strikes, reminiscent of the Second Lebanon War, when "residential neighborhoods in southern Lebanon were intensively bombed." The IDF reported on Sunday that fighter jets struck "terror infrastructure, command centers, launchers and military compounds of Hizbullah." Throughout the day, rocket fire from Lebanon to Israel continued, with local terrorist organizations, led by Hizbullah, being careful not to extend their range beyond Israel's northernmost communities, most of which have been evacuated. IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Herzi Halevi visited the Lebanese border on Sunday and told local leaders that "the residents have to return to a different situation, and regain both security and a sense of security. There is a military way to do this....The State of Israel has never taken the stance that war is the first solution to try, but we understand that the situation here has to end with a very, very clear change."
