US official: Israel may launch a “limited ground invasion” into Lebanon

As the year of Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7 last year and the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is about to come to an end, the leader of Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Nasrallah, was confirmed to have been killed in an Israeli terrorist attack on September 28 local time. The tension in the Middle East, which has already reached its limit, is about to collapse. Citing two US officials, local time on September 28, it was reported that as the Israel Defense Forces mobilized troops to the border, the US believed that Israel might launch a “limited ground invasion” of Lebanon. Regarding the possibility of launching a ground operation, the Israeli military has repeatedly stated in recent days that it is “repeated”. After Nasrallah was killed in the attack, many parties in the Middle East responded one after another, and the subsequent responses of Hezbollah’s regional ally Iran and the United States, which was accused of “accomplice”, as well as who will lead Hezbollah in the future, have attracted attention. Earlier, a Pentagon spokesman responded that the United States did not participate in and did not receive any advance warning of the Israeli army’s attack on Hezbollah’s headquarters in Beirut on the 27th. On September 28, local time, the White House website released a statement from US President Biden on Nasrallah’s death, saying that Nasrallah’s death in an Israeli air crash was “justice for the many victims, including thousands of Americans, Israelis and Lebanese civilians.” Biden emphasized that “the United States supports Israel’s self-defense” and the ultimate goal is to ease the current conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon through diplomatic means.
