We all know it's called tactical retreat and any sane army acts so and aims to preserve the lives of its personnel...

This detternece Lebanon paid for by blood and lost friends, as no one of us doesn't know someone killed by Israel, was it a civilian or a fighter.

Contrary to some rumors in DC and Beirut pre the release of the sanctions package, no Lebanese nationals (or Lebanon based corporate entities) were included in today's sanctions package; the scope of today's act is focused within Syria and not regionally

Yediot Aharonot:

The IDF reinforcements will continue to be deployed on the back roads near the border, on high alert, during the weekend.

Gal Berger, from the Hebrew "Kann" Channel:

Evaluation of the Israeli army, Nasrallah will respond within the next 36 hours or during the Eid al-Adha holiday that begins on Friday, or after Eid al-Adha from Monday and beyond.

Aka they don't know when; it's an open assumption.

Military correspondent for the Walla site, Amir Bahbout:

The IDF is pushing more military reinforcements to the borders of Palestine with Lebanon. https://t.co/P7wUjST2ZQ

After I was skeptical of the reports that claim that the electricity in Lebanon worsened due to the end of the electricity contract between Lebanon and Syria, it seems that the USA state department just confirmed that. (1/4)

State Department David Schenker's deputy Joel Rayburn said: "We are reviewing it (waivers) before deciding on it, but the ceiling of exceptions is a very high ceiling to allow specific exceptions in relation to dealing with the Assad regime." (2/4) https://t.co/d1clSwuyhi

He added: "As for the government's request regarding the exclusion of electricity buying from Syria from the sanctions, the American official said that" the Assad regime is not the answer to the electricity difficulties in Lebanon" (3/4)

Continues: "and we know that these difficulties are great and everyone knows that this sector needs a lot in order to provide basic needs for the Lebanese".

So basically for everyone who thinks USA is not suffocating Lebanon, explain this please. Our officials are silent. (4/4)

Do not think this is a minor issue, the USA is literally creating an announced blockage on Lebanon. Syria is Lebanon's only border from the north and east. The sea is on the western side.

It's (Syria) its (Lebanon's) only access to the outside world on ground.

The IDF has decided to not publish any proof of the incident on Mount Dov at this stage. Why?
