Israel and Hezbollah are edging closer to full-scale conflict, with the Israeli military preparing for a potential ground assault in Lebanon. Airstrikes, which have already displaced tens of thousands and killed hundreds, are paving the way for a broader operation aimed at crippling Hezbollah’s military capacity.
