Israeli Knesset member and former Security minister Avigdor Lieberman wrote in a post on X, that "the War Cabinet lost the North," emphasizing that "What is happening with Hezbollah is lawlessness of the first order."

Lieberman warned, "If we don't come to our senses quickly, we will lose control over strategic parts for the security of the State of Israel."

The occupation's MK commented on "photos that have been coming out of Gaza in recent days," claiming that they "showing Hamas policemen returning to their routine and handing out reports in the luxury Rimal neighborhood in Gaza, the lively markets in Jabaliya overflowing with people buying from everything nearby, and the Shifa Hospital that has returned to full operation, including surgeries."

According to Lieberman, these images were "particularly jarring against the backdrop of tens of thousands of Otaf residents who are still very far from returning to normal and scattered in all parts of the country," adding "That's not how you run a war, that's not how you defeat Hamas."

It is important to note that the claims of Lieberman are not particularly true. The pictures that were circulated on social media showed the deployment of hundreds of Palestinian police officers in Jabalia, Gaza, Deir al-Balah, Khan Younis, and Rafah. Local activists said, "The police have been deployed as a precaution against any security deterioration that may occur due to the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip."

They also reported that the police officers did not leave the cities in the Gaza Strip, but their deployment was notable given the current circumstances.

Don't tell us 'Hezbollah is deterred': Israeli media

An opinion piece published in the Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom, titled Don't Tell us that 'Hezbollah is deterred', touched on the ongoing crisis faced by Israeli settlers in the northern regions of occupied Palestine.

This crisis, known in "Israel" as the "northern front crisis" with Hezbollah, has intensified after the start of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7, as northern settlements were evacuated and settlers were relocated to other areas due to the perceived threat of the operations of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah.

According to the report, during the weekend, it was said that Israelis who resided in settlements located 3.5 kilometers from the borders with Lebanon would be allowed to return to their residences, but the Israeli occupation military later denied this.

It recalled that American mediator Amos Hochstein traveled between Lebanon and "Israel" to ensure that Hezbollah does not target settlers returning to their residences," but a couple of days later, Hezbollah reportedly targeted settlers' residences on the northern borders, which turned the situation into "a deadly game of roulette."

After days that witnessed a decrease in the intensity of operations in the north, some claimed that "Hezbollah is deterred", however, the report continues, that as soon as things became clearer, the Lebanese Resistance group resurfaced.

"On October 7, we lost trust in the government and the army. Those who abandoned our brothers in the south are now abandoning us – we, the northern residents. We will not return home without a sense of security, a feeling that we determine," the newspaper's correspondent in northern Palestine expressed in his opinion piece.

Elsewhere, the correspondent concluded by saying that while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Security Minister Yoav Gallant keep on threatening Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and promising that the Lebanese Resistance group has moved away from the fence with Lebanon, in the field, Hezbollah's "Radwan force is felt here every day."
