Israel's Lebanon withdrawal dilemma
A report published in the Israeli newspaper "Maariv" warns of the dangers facing the presence of the Israeli army in southern Lebanon, estimating that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's insistence on remaining could be considered "political suicide." The assessments indicate that U.S. pressures for Israel to withdraw from the areas it controls in southern Lebanon will continue and may even escalate. However, implementing a complete withdrawal at this time is politically impossible for Netanyahu, who prefers to maintain limited security zones to preserve his achievements. Israel fears that Iran's role is shifting from a threat to a party managing Lebanon's affairs. Meanwhile, Israeli forces continue to demolish facilities and clear infrastructure, with an underground complex linked to Hezbollah regarded as strategically important. The international community is betting on regional stability and political settlements, while Israel is concerned that political time is running out amid the rising Lebanese stance and Iran's statements.
