Report: Local, int'l forces rule out Hezbollah-Israel war
Lebanese and international parties have ruled out an all-out war between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, a media report said.
“Local and international forces reassured those who asked them yesterday about the possibility of the ignition of the (Lebanese) southern front, noting that the current circumstances make such a battle unlikely,” ad-Diyar newspaper quoted highly informed Lebanese sources as saying, in remarks published Monday.
“But confirming anything during wartime is improper, seeing as a single uncalculated incident might take us to a totally difference situation,” the sources added.
“It seems certain that the enemy has no interest to escalate, and it has openly declared it several times, but the Axis of Resistance cannot stand idly by should Gaza be invaded and its residents displaced or if the plan to eradicate the resistance goes forward, seeing as these are red lines whose crossing will not be allowed whatever the price might be,” the sources went on to say.
