Israeli strikes on Hezbollah in S. Lebanon after attack on IDF forces at Ali Tahr Ridge

INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY

A Lebanese political official from a party opposed to Hezbollah tells Kan News that Hezbollah, directed by Iran, is escalating on the ground to weaken the Lebanese state and sabotage direct Israel-Lebanon negotiations. The official says Beirut still refuses to accept that the root problem is Hezbollah's failure to disarm, contrary to government decisions. This follows Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon, launched in response to a Hezbollah attack on Israeli forces at the Ali Tahr Ridge.
