IDF says things are at a breaking point in the north
The Israel Defense Forces say things have reached a breaking point along its border with Lebanon, where there has been an exchange of attacks between Israel and Hezbollah for months.
"We are approaching the point where a decision will have to be made, and the IDF is prepared and very ready for this decision. We have been striking here for eight months and Hezbollah is paying a very, very high price," Herzi Halevi, a spokesperson for the IDF, said Tuesday.
"Hezbollah has increased its attacks in recent days and we are prepared after a very good process of training up to the level of a General Staff exercise to move to an offensive in the north. Strong defense, readiness for an offensive, we are approaching a decision point," the IDF said.
