โญ•๏ธ The statement adds, and I quote:

- The decision taken by the leadership of the Israeli enemy army to move to the second phase of the "ground maneuver" in southern Lebanon will only lead to disappointment, and its inevitable results will be more losses and failures; and our fighters are waiting.

- The resistance has taken, within its defensive plans, all measures that enable it to fight a long battle to prevent the enemy from achieving its goals in defense of the freedom and sovereignty of its country, and the dignity and honor of its proud people.

- We confirm that the front in all axes and sectors possesses the necessary equipment and various military specialties to fight such a battle.

- Despite the claims made by the enemy about controlling the border villages, our fighters were able during the past few days to carry out many rocket attacks from the Lebanese-Palestinian border.

Theywere also able to surprise the enemy with direct clashes behind its lines of deployment.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ In desperate needs for even more soldiers, to maintain the war effort in Lebanon, Gaza, Syria, West Bank, 1948 lands and everywhere....

... The IDF will issue between 4,500 and 7,000 orders to join the reserves for the religious ultra-orthodox, including Yeshiva students.

In previous orders, only a small percentage came to recruitment offices. One of the reasons Gallant was fired was because of this, allegedly.

However Netanyahu's yes-man, Katz, didn't scrap the call for these 7,000 recruitment orders.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งl๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ 25% decline in reserve soldiers willing to join the IDF again: We are tired

(Quoted as is from a Jewish journalist)

There has been a significant decline in the rate of reserve soldiers showing up for duty in recent weeks compared to the start of the war.

At the start of the war, the IDF reported that more than 100% of reservists called up for duty had shown up.

In recent weeks, the turnout rate in the reservist units currently fighting in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip has varied between 75% and 85%, according to defense sources.

The decline has been attributed by senior officers to burnout among reservists after fighting for over a year of war, along with them being away from their families for extended periods, losing jobs, or missing academic studies.

It has also been attributed to the failure of the country to draft masses of the ultra-Orthodox community, while the national religious and secular communities serve at high rates.
๐Ÿ‘60๐Ÿ‘Ž7๐Ÿซก3๐Ÿ’”2๐Ÿคฌ1
๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Jobs wise, you can see Israeli media everywhere begging to help reserve soldiers.

Some are setting up GoFundMe, others are trying to help their bankrupted business because they have left them to go kill civilians in Lebanon and Gaza.

These two ugly bastards, one is a Belarusian who came to Israel to serve in the army, is promoting his products to help with the ๐Ÿฆจ stink.

This is a mass phenomenon, not just few cases. Israel arrogantly has dragged the war for one year, and is still dragging it longer without wanting to compromise.

And it'll only cause more exhaustion for them, exhaustion to one of the top 10 militaries in the world, and the US-EU backed economy

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Mike Huckabee in 2017: โ€œThere is no such thing as West Bank.โ€

Trump gave Israel the Syrian lands in the Golan Heights, officially annexing it. Next is the West Bank.

And with Gaza now under Israel war and genocide, Trump might be the factor to accelerate the end of the Palestinian statehood if Israel wins this war.

He was a former soldier in the mercenary militia South Lebanon Army, which supported the Israeli occupation of south Lebanon and was part of torturing prisoners, until the withdrawal in 2000 where he escaped to Israel

I wonder if his family will ask for his body to be buried in Lebanon, as usual.
