Poor planning and a nine-month long campaign of genocide in Gaza have left the Israeli army depleted and unprepared to confront Hezbollah in Lebanon
Israeli journalist Alon Ben David on 28 June reported that the losses suffered by the Israeli army in Gaza have significantly diminished its capabilities to wage war on multiple fronts and that the forces are “not currently ready for a broad campaign in Lebanon.”
According to David’s report on Hebrew Maariv, more than 500 armored vehicles have been damaged by the Palestinian resistance in Gaza over the past nine months, and the Israeli army has consumed a much larger volume of ammunition than estimated in all of its war plans.
David claims that the depletion of Israel’s arsenal is one of the reasons why Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently accused the US of “withholding” arms shipments, using this as “an excuse … for the reason that he does not initiate a campaign in Lebanon.”
Furthermore, Israeli troops have been widely affected by the long campaign of genocide in Gaza, as all operational plans from 7 October “were for a war of a few weeks.” David reveals that at least 666 Israeli soldiers have been killed, nearly 4,000 have been injured, and over 11,000 “required mental treatment since the beginning of the war.”
