The Wall Street Journal reported that Israeli security officials fear expanding military operations in Lebanon could lead to a war of attrition.
These officials consider "Israel's" incursion into Lebanon, aimed at pressuring Hezbollah into a settlement, as "fraught with risks."
The report quoted a former Israeli military intelligence chief as saying, "We are losing opportunities to leverage our achievements against Hezbollah," warning that "if we wait too long, Hezbollah could rebuild its capabilities and reject a ceasefire."
