Israeli Army Chief of Staff Avio Kohawi said that in the event of a war against Lebanon’s Hezbollah, “ground forces must operate across the Lebanese border to defeat the Iranian-backed party.”
“Hezbollah has an elite force called Rezvan, which is trained to infiltrate the borders and enter northern Israel to occupy a military base or an Israeli community for propaganda use,” Kahvi said. “The Israeli army is ready to neutralize.” “Any such effort is underway.” Build a new wall along the border.
He noted that Hezbollah is capable of deploying 45,000 short-range missiles and 80,000 medium-range and long-range missiles, which are dozens of precision-guided and mortar missiles, noting that up to 1,500 missiles will be fired in the event of war. “From Lebanon in the day.”
“Thousands of Israeli soldiers are being trained to respond, including the destruction of missile launch sites, and Hezbollah command and control centers will be targeted near borders, anti-aircraft sites and checkpoints,” he said. The military estimates that after 9 a.m. during the war, there may be thousands of casualties in Lebanon, many of them Hezbollah fighters, but some civilians may be injured despite Israeli plans to evacuate civilians from their targets.
“In Israel, about 300 civilians and soldiers may be killed in nine days, and 80 places across the country, including residential buildings that may come under direct fire, will be destroyed,” he said.
