Israeli right-wing outlets are calling for war in Lebanon after Hezbollah's strikes in northern Israel.
"The north is burning, and with it is the Israeli Deterrence Force, and this is a Government without a strategy." – Yair Lapid, Israeli Politician and current Leader of Opposition.
"The fires in northern Israel are evidence of bankruptcy and the continuation of the containment policy, and it is time for Lebanon to burn." – Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israeli Minister of National Security.
Fires have been spreading massively across northern Israel for the last 12 hours. It has yet to be extinguished.
A state of emergency has been declared in northern Israel as a result of the firestorm created by Hezbollah strikes.
Israeli Media: 'Hezbollah has created an uninhabitable zone of fire in the North; we must go to war in Lebanon as soon as possible, or the Galilee will be at risk of becoming a permanent no-go zone'
Israeli media reports that 32 fire units have been working to extinguish the flames in northern #Israel, but are hampered by poor weather and the sheer size of the #fires.

The #IDF says it completed a war simulation exercise over the past week, as part of preparations for an escalation in northern #Israel.
The drill, carried out by the Northern Command and other General Staff directorates and wings, included "many scenarios that simulate the expansion of the war in the northern arena, and multi-front war scenarios," the military says.
The IDF also says that as part of the drill, the 36th Division simulated "combat scenarios in the northern arena."
IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi visited the Northern Command's underground command center, the Israeli Air Force's command center, and other war rooms amid the drill, the military adds.

This is what West is supporting: "In Gaza, if you ask me, instead of taking them to the south, we should have told them to go to the beaches. Then the navy would know how to load them (onto boats). Put them in the refugee camps with their brothers in #Lebanon... Leave Gaza with nothing in it."
Head of the Metula municipality, a northern Israeli settlement near Lebanon, David Azulay, suggests in a podcast to completely ethnically cleanse Palestinians in Gaza and make it a place "like #Auschwitz."

🔹On the border with #Lebanon, the exchange of strikes between the #IDF and #Hezbollah continues. Despite the liquidation of another field commander last evening, the number of shellings does not yet allow us to talk about an escalation.
🔹In #Yemen's airspace, the Houthis shot down another MQ-9 Reaper. The footage showed the defeat and fall of the UAV. This is the second shot down in May and the fifth since the escalation began on October 7.
