There are quite many things that are going on, shaping a very bleak future from how I'm seeing it. Won't elaborate much since it's 7.12 am but here we go. (Some doom thoughts, don't read them - just writing my thoughts for myself)

- It seems there will be no peace in Gaza, the war is moving towards a cold war (in the sense of a low intensity one) and towards a permanent Israeli occupation in some sectors.

The lack of prospects to end the war, is a lack of peace and stability. The Israeli army is preparing to stay, and occupation isn't a taboo for it. Nothing else says this better than the preparations in the corridors and the literal appointment of a Gaza affairs army commander. That's like the IDF laison who would administer a location.

- How long can Hamas last? They are under siege and bullets and RPGs will not last forever, this clearly explains why they have been rationing for months and how they operated.

- The Lebanese front will also enter a statement of no-peace and remain active, even with low intensity, for as long as Gaza stays in bad shape up till a war.

Long periods of peace aren't possible unless Gaza war ends soon with an Israeli withdrawal from the sector.

- Hezbullah has been very smart, and very clear that they do no plan to turn this supporting front to war no matter the price they pay as Hezbullah.

Kill our division leaders? No war. Kill out literal chief of staff and historic prodigy commander? No war.

I might elaborate on this one day, but from my understanding the conditions aren't there for a war whose goals will fruitful. A war now is futile and Hezbullah reached the peak of what it could achieve with the current threshold in support of Gaza. The peak might not have influenced or changed course, but that's the peak after which just one step is a war.

I could notice also that Hezbullah still opts to not use strategic weapons and facilities because they know, after this battle end, there will be no long peace to rebuild the infrastructure like before or transport weapons like before.

The loss of this strategic asset now, under these conditions, for this battle, will be a historic loss that Hezbullah might not recover from easily.

Hezbullah is wise, strategic, doesn't follow emotions nor is hast. More importantly unlike others, doesn't throw his best into a fire that they cannot recover from.

There is a reason why no more drones are being shot down. Part because the drones are flying higher and part regarding weapons and the types.

- On the other hand, I do think Israel will continue to exert a heavy price on Hezbullah and will haunt for these strategic assets.

More importantly will hunt to kill Hezbullah's experienced commanders from low to high ranks. Experience and knowledge is more worthy than the world's treasures combined. Knowledge and experience is more important than anything.

Hezbullah understands this well, and here where opsec and foiling these attempts will be a very important step to get out of this battle safe.

- The choise to not turn this into a war was quite a gamble, is a gamble, whose results will show by this war's (Gaza's) end. Gambling the halal version.

- When Gaza's war ends, and the Israeli army retreats, the main focus of the Israeli security establishment will be Hezbullah and the threat it became. The war will be here in a couple of years because detterence is eroded...by both sides.

It's simply a matter of cons and pros. Benefits and losses.

- Although it remains a good question, did Israel adapt to letting part of its north empty? Is it really not a factor burdening the Israeli political establishment? If so this is a positive factor that would reduce the chances of an Israeli operation in south Lebanon.

If not, it'll be the #1 factor to.

- Hamas made [redacted], but those are for post-war discussions. For now we only pray for their survival, success in the negotiations, and the best and even best to the Gazans to ensure their patience and resilience.

🇮🇱 The Home Front Command has decided that classes in the non-evacuated communities in the Upper Galilee, the Western Galilee and the Golan Heights will be able to open on 1 September.

However, under restrictions. Among the localities on which restrictions on educational activity will be imposed - Nahariya, Katzrin, Ma'alot, and the rest of the local and regional councils.

Studies will only be possible where you can reach a protected area during the warning. Sports activities or other educational activities in an open area will be able to take place in groups of up to 35 students only, and up to 6 children in kindergartens and day care centers.

🇮🇱/🇱🇧 Galant in the government debate: "We Have to expand the goals of the war to include the return of the people in the north to their homes safely"
📄 The statement is mostly political attack against Netanyahu for refusing to end the war in Gaza. Ending it opens the path for calm in south Lebanon and thus the return of people back home on both sides.

Gantz barked similar needs to update the war goals from outside the government.

📹 Earlier today the Lebanese army accompanied the locals from Mays al-Jabal village to evacuate their merchandise and shops outside.

Such movement needed coordination with the UN and the Israeli army (indirectly).

The village has been under constant Israeli attacks throughout this battle.

⭕️ Additional such FPV attacks took place on 27 August. The drones reaches their targts with ease, flying slowly with crisp HQ footage.

On that day, Hezbullah attacked:
- Optical surveillance equipment at Duviv barracks. It was located on a crane
- A communication junction and wiring at Al-Abad base
- Optical surveillance equipment at Al-Abas base on a crane.

The last attack shows a possible range limitation of these FPV. These attacks showcase reach and ability to harm if soldiers were ever daring to mount an offensive on Lebanon and be exposed by being outside of fortified positions.

📹 Today civil defense was operating in that area, clearing rubble from the Israeli attacks that blocked the road.

You can see the tall border wall and the some damages to it. It was only attacked a few times by Hezbullah but never prioritized.
