In the town of Shebaa, an Israeli drone strike hit a residential building; however, there were no reported casualties. Al-Mayadeen's correspondent in the area highlighted the tense atmosphere as Israeli warplanes continued to strike the outskirts of towns, further heightening concerns among local residents.

Hezbollah undefeated, capable of draining 'Israel': Israeli media

The battle against Hezbollah is long and complex, Israel Hayom wrote, highlighting Hezbollah's ability to drain and exhaust the Israeli occupation. 

In his op-ed, Israeli Reserves General Gershon Hacohen stressed that the occupation was "operating with no strategy" against Hezbollah.

On the other hand, the Islamic Resistance was strategizing and focusing on "preserving the momentum of attrition" in its hands, regardless of whether the Israeli occupation initiated a ground offensive and positioned its forces along the Litani. 

All Hezbollah needs to maintain the state of attrition is a "large enough arsenal of rockets, missiles, and drones, which it already possesses, and to continue launching them toward Israel," the newspaper added. 

Regarding the Israeli public opinion and its stance toward the war on Lebanon, Israel Hayom affirmed that they [settlers] could no longer withstand the dynamic of another war of attrition, describing it as "hopeless". 

In this context, the Israeli media asked, "Has Hezbollah been defeated? Will it surrender? The answer is no," emphasizing that Hezbollah calculates its actions and examines the trajectory of the war with every strike. 

It further warned that the war still has not reached its peak, "it is still at the front and Hezbollah is on its way despite the delay."
