Israeli media confirmed on Thursday that "there is no end in sight for the war, and even when it concludes, it will continue in different forms and across other sectors."

The media reports also emphasized several issues related to the settlers and their "places of residence," with the primary question being raised by Israelis: How long will this war last?

Israeli media also noted a second point regarding the Golani Brigade, which has been deployed in both the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, highlighting that "the cost of its involvement has been steep, and its ranks are dwindling."

The Israeli reports noted that the Golani Brigade, the most important unit in the Israeli army, is facing a significant shortage of fighters, adding that "Lebanon is soaked with the blood of generations of Golani soldiers," tracing the brigade's sacrifices from Goni Harnik, who fell in the 1982 invasion of Lebanon at Beaufort Castle, to Erez Gerstein, who led the liaison unit during the late stages of the Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon. They also mentioned Roi Klein, the deputy commander of the 51st Battalion, who was killed in Bint Jbeil during the 2006 war.

Israeli media reported that the most recent losses were announced on Wednesday when the Israeli military spokesperson reported the killing of a platoon commander and five other soldiers from the 51st Battalion during confrontations in southern Lebanon.

Israeli statements are contrary to reality

Israeli media also highlighted a gap between official statements and the reality on the ground. While Israeli officials continue to announce victories over Hezbollah, the situation on the ground is telling a different story.

They pointed out that settlers are being killed in "Israel", with drones bombing Haifa, missiles hitting both Haifa and Gush Dan, and the reality in the North, which they said has been abandoned and devastated for over a year.

Israeli media emphasized that the longer the war drags on, the more "Israel's achievements will be diminished," with all operations—from targeting Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah to the pager attacks to the strikes on Hezbollah's leadership and missile capabilities—eventually becoming part of the past.

"Today we live in a bloody reality in which we are being killed more and intercepting more missiles, without any benefit, so the conclusion is 'an agreement must be reached as soon as possible," Israeli media reports suggest.

On that note, the Islamic Resistance's Operations Room vowed Tuesday that the decision by the Israeli military to move to the second phase of the "ground maneuver" in southern Lebanon would only result in further losses for Israeli forces, underscoring Hezbollah's readiness to counter any offensive.

In a statement, the Operation Room confirmed that Hezbollah's field observations since October 1, 2024, showed that Israeli losses include over 100 fatalities and 1,000 injuries among officers and soldiers. Meanwhile, the Israeli Channel 14's military correspondent reported that 11 soldiers were killed and more than 10 others were injured on the Gaza and Lebanon fronts over the past two days alone.

Hezbollah's targeting of Kirya proof of capabilities: Israeli media

Following Hezbollah's targeting of the Kirya base in Tel Aviv, and the subsequent rocket launches toward the central region in occupied Palestine, Israeli media suggested that the third phase of the war with Hezbollah includes Tel Aviv, emphasizing that the Lebanese group "is committed to the promises it made."  

Israeli Channel 12's political affairs correspondent, Yaron Avraham, considered that the launches directed at Tel Aviv are proof of Hezbollah's extensive firepower capabilities, pointing out that "anyone who believes otherwise is mistaken; the situation is not like that at all."  

Avraham indicated that this capability "shall remain with Hezbollah, even after the completion of a ceasefire agreement, if one occurs," with Israeli media outlets noting that the Lebanese group is capable of launching rockets at the central region daily.

Similarly, retired Major General Eitan Dangot acknowledged in a statement to Channel 12, that Hezbollah "maintains its rocket and drone capabilities and achieves successes through them."
