[74053] Criticism in Israeli media regarding IDF conduct in Lebanon and Hezbollah's use of UAVs
Sharp criticism of the campaign management in southern Lebanon
According to reports in الإعلام الحربي - التغطية الإخبارية and جنوب لبنان | راصد العدو, media outlets affiliated with the Axis of Resistance, the Israeli media (Channel 12) presents a difficult picture of the operational situation in Lebanon. Military correspondent Shay Levy is quoted as claiming that the IDF is "bleeding again in the Lebanese mud" due to ignoring the principles of guerrilla warfare and lessons from the past.
The sources emphasize, with a reference to Levy's report, that there has been a "significant surge" in Hezbollah's use of explosive UAVs, which has led to "heavy damage" to the IDF. According to the reports, the IDF High Command promised protection through a "security zone" and "dynamic defense," but the reality on the ground proves that this is a "trap" written in "letters of fire."
In the reports cited from Shehab Agency and Al-Mayadeen Channel, it is highlighted that Hezbollah is not content with attacking forces at the contact line, but is actively seeking "soft" logistical and administrative targets within Israeli territory. Furthermore, video documentation was published showing, according to the sources, the extent of the organization's operatives' proximity to IDF forces in the Hadatha area, which testifies to the organization's "accurate tracking" of the army's movements.
In summary, the reports emphasize the sense of failure as it is reflected in the Israeli media, with the military correspondent noting that "the high price we are paying now is a direct result of underestimating the enemy's capabilities."
