“Israel’s failure in Lebanon is severe and is reminiscent of Russia’s failure in Ukraine. At the outset, your army sought to control the missile-launch areas; later, the Litani River became the objective, and today the focus is north of the Litani. This is similar to what happened during the 1982 Lebanon War, when you eventually reached the Chouf Mountains.
Hezbollah is challenging you with fiber-optic-guided drones, for which you currently have no effective countermeasure. Moreover, due to the exhaustion of reserve forces, there has been a decline in the quality of the units the Israeli army is deploying in southern Lebanon, and this is clearly evident.”
