The U.S. administration has started to prepare an “alternative plan” for a diplomatic solution between Israel and Lebanon in light of the “dead end” that the Israel-Hamas negotiations have reached, Israel’s state-owned Kan TV reported.
Israeli officials meanwhile told U.S. counterparts that “Israel cannot wait any longer to begin a military campaign against Lebanon,” Kan TV said.
Israeli army chief Herzi Halevi said Monday that his army is "operating forcefully in the northern arena, is on alert, has operational plans ready, and is prepared to carry out any mission it will be assigned."
