israel's extreme pressure may backfire and trigger a full-scale conflict
cgtn reporter zhao bing:israeli defense minister galant said on the 23rd that in the past few days, the israeli army has destroyed tens of thousands of hezbollah missiles. israeli chief of staff halevy also said that the israeli army's target is the military infrastructure that hezbollah has been building for the past 20 years. the israeli army will also launch strikes against hezbollah in the future. israeli prime minister netanyahu also said on the 23rd thatisrael will not wait for threats to come, but will anticipate and take preemptive action. netanyahu said the current israeli military operation is to destroylihezbollah's missiles are intended to change the balance of power between the two sides and the security situation in northern israel.
cgtn reporter zhao bing:at present, israel's strategy can still be summarized as constantly raising its posture, emphasizing its position, pressing forward step by step, and exerting extreme pressure. in this regard, israeli media analysis believes that after this airstrike, although hezbollah suffered a major blow, it still retains most of the long-range precision-guided missiles that can attack tel aviv and central israel, and still has more than 100,000 rockets and a large number of drones. the analysis said that if israel continues its so-called extreme pressure,then the conflict between the two sides is likely to reach a new critical point, thus triggering a comprehensive conflict or even a regional conflict.,andisrael will also pay a heavy price.
