Both the escalation on the southern Lebanon border and the resulting displacement have received a lot of media coverage. Hezbollah has kept saying that this is to keep IDF from being all focused on Gaza and that they would stop if a ceasefire is reached. Until about three month ago both Israel and Hezbollah have been trying to keep the level of escalation low.
This has changes as Israel attacked Beirut and threatened to turn it into “another Gaza” and boasting about how they could destroy all of Lebanon. Netanyahus government has aimed to escalate the war there, to draw in the US and other western allies.
Now whether we will see the full escalation now remains to be seen. Hezbollah is a whole different league compared to Hamas in terms of weapons and fighters.
