Israeli media notes Hezbollah's enduring influence in the north, and settlers express hesitance to return without a change in the situation, with many considering permanent relocation.

Israeli media has once again reported that The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, Hezbollah, maintains a strategic advantage in the North.

This marks the second instance of such a characterization of the situation along the blue line between Lebanon and the occupied Palestinian territories. This assessment comes in the wake of persistent confrontations between the occupying forces and the Islamic resistance in Lebanon.

Arab affairs analyst Tzvi Yehezkeli said on Channel 13, "Hezbollah's hand remains dominant in the north because it is the one that wants to exert more pressure and knows that Israel is restraining itself."

"In the civil aspect, the north seems to be in a strong war, with the roads empty," affirming that "Israel in the north has fallen into a trap," He added.

In turn, the correspondent of Channel 13 in the North, Shlomi Eldar, described what is happening in the North as "an ATGM war against armor."

"During the Second Lebanon War, the Israelis stayed at home and considered the Katyusha as the most threatening weapon, but today the most threatening weapon is anti-tank missiles," He added.

The Channel 13 North correspondent reported settlers saying they would not return until the situation changed. Each one aspires to move away in the future due to a lack of security, and they feel neglected by the state.

Earlier this month, Israeli Channel 13's correspondent to the North reported that the gravest threat to Israeli forces in the North is anti-tank missiles, and Hezbollah recognizes this vulnerability and tries to exploit it. 

On his part, Colonel Kobe Merom, of the Israeli Army reserves stated that "the reality of Hezbollah's presence a few kilometers away from the border is intolerable."

"Israel is committing a serious strategic mistake in the northern arena," Merom said in a radio interview,  noting that "the dangerous incident that occurred in Beit Hillel only proved to those who did not understand that the reality of Hezbollah's presence a few kilometers from the border is intolerable."

"Israel" losing on the northern front 

Last month, Israeli occupation Knesset Member and former Security Minister Avigdor Lieberman said that the Israeli government lost the war in the North.

"Hezbollah will continue to use the northern front until it sees a change in the Gaza Strip," Channel 13 Arab affairs commentator Hizki Simanto said.

"There is no change in Gaza, and Yahya Sinwar has not been eliminated, and Israel is not stepping up to the task of completely eliminating Hamas," the Israeli journalist said.

He also warned that "what is happening on the northern borders and in the towns along the confrontation line and the northern towns is an intolerable situation; no one lives there, and no one wants to return there. This is an achievement for Hezbollah."
