The ongoing conflict in Lebanon has escalated as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed on April 7 that the US-Iran ceasefire does not extend to the region. With 1.2 million Lebanese civilians displaced, the situation has become dire. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have ramped up airstrikes, increasing sorties over Beirut and southern Lebanon by 140% in just 24 hours. The IDF aims to dismantle Hezbollah’s military capabilities while Iran is engaged in negotiations with Pakistan. In a significant move, the IDF issued an evacuation order for residents south of the Zahrani River, marking a shift from border skirmishes to a potential full-scale occupation of Southern Lebanon. This expansion of the conflict zone is intended to create a buffer against Hezbollah. In response, Hezbollah has adopted a 'Mosaic Defence' strategy, utilizing decentralized cells to launch drone attacks and maintain pressure on Israeli defenses. As the humanitarian crisis deepens, with one in five Lebanese citizens now internally displaced, the conflict in Lebanon has become the focal point of regional tensions.
