Israeli invasion of Lebanon ‘imminent’ amid fight against Hezbollah<\/a><\/h4>\n

Fox News’ Nate Foy reports the latest on the likely ground incursion. The ‘Outnumbered’ panel also discussed their reaction to the media’s depiction of terrorists like former Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Israel Defense Forces<\/a> (IDF) began a limited, localized ground operation targeting Iran-backed terrorist group Hezbollah on Monday evening, marking a new chapter in the Israel-Hamas war.<\/p>\n

The developments came in the wake of the IDF’s successful attacks against Hezbollah, killing several of the organization’s key figures over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was one of the most notable fatalities. The Israeli military also confirmed that Nabil Kaouk, the deputy head of Hezbollah\u2019s Central Council, was eliminated by IDF forces.<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Shortly before Monday’s operation, the IDF imposed a closed military zone on northern Israeli border communities including Metula, Misgav Am, and Kfar Giladi.<\/p>\n

The incursion began after the Israeli military launched airstrikes on central Beirut<\/a> on Sunday, marking the first time in the year-long war that the central part of the Lebanese capital was targeted.<\/p>\n

The IDF previously aimed towards south Beirut, which is a stronghold for Hezbollah. On Sunday, it targeted Sunni terrorist group Al-Jam\u0101\u02bbah al-isl\u0101m\u012byah.<\/p>\n

On Monday afternoon, President Biden<\/a> expressed disapproval over the IDF’s imminent ground operations.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m more aware [of Israel’s plan] than you might know, and I\u2019m comfortable with them stopping,” Biden told reporters before the incursion started.<\/p>\n

“We should have a ceasefire now.”<\/p>\n

Earlier on Monday, the IDF issued an ominous warning to Hezbollah in an X post.<\/p>\n

“A surface-to-air missile launcher storage facility that Hezbollah had positioned approx. 1.5 km from Beirut\u2019s international airport was dismantled in a precise IDF strike,” the Israeli military announced. “This infrastructure poses a threat to both the Lebanese and international airspace.”<\/p>\n
