Israeli media discussed the dangers of expanding the war with Lebanon into a full-scale war, stressing it would "push Israel to the brink of the abyss, especially with the absence of international legitimacy and an exhausted army."

Military affairs analyst Amos Harel, writing for Haaretz, emphasized, "A war with Hezbollah would present an unprecedented challenge to Israel's home front, with the northern and central regions confronting a level of threat previously unseen."

He added, "It is increasingly challenging to anticipate positive developments on the horizon, particularly as we approach the ninth month of war."

Harel continued, citing "a series of discussions held over the past two weeks with officials in security and military circles," which disclosed growing signs that "Israel is heading towards a multidimensional failure."

In this context, he emphasized that "Israel" finds itself entangled in all fronts, with the most critical being "the arena of confrontation with Hezbollah in Lebanon," facing the looming threat of a full-scale war. He warned that such a war would dwarf all previous events, asserting, "Everything that occurred before would pale in comparison."

Ceasefire talks 

He also highlighted that the negotiations concerning the captives-detainees deal with Hamas are "encountering another crisis," "despite a brief moment where it appeared that US President Joe Biden’s speech might offer a breakthrough."

He further emphasized that "the ongoing military operations in the Gaza Strip, particularly centered around Rafah and the central camps, are unlikely to yield a conclusive victory in the near future."

Earlier on Thursday, Israeli media highlighted that the hits resulting from Hezbollah's operation against an Israeli military gathering in Elkosh settlement were severe, deeming it the most serious incident in the northern front since the beginning of the confrontations due to its distance from the border with Lebanon and the extent of the inflicted losses.

The media called for an investigation into the Israeli Air Force's failure to detect and intercept Hezbollah's drones.

Touching on the Elkosh operation, the Israeli Channel 14 correspondent said it was "a well-planned and coordinated" operation by Hezbollah, adding that the Lebanese group appears to be escalating the level of its attacks.
