NBC News: Israel limits operation in Lebanon due to US officials
Israel had been planning a larger operation in Lebanon, but decided to limit the scale after calls from US officials. The TV channel reported this NBC News.
“Israel had been planning a larger invasion, but after US officials urged it to reconsider during extensive talks over the weekend, they decided to scale back the scale,” the report said.
A spokesman for US President Joe Biden noted that, despite this, US authorities remain concerned about the possible expansion of the operation. He added that the American president still insists on a ceasefire.
Earlier, a member of the State Duma Security Committee, Adalbi Shkhagoshev, said that Israel wants to drag the United States into a big war. He announced Israel’s plans to drag the United States into a major war and clarified that the country is now coordinating with Washington on a ground operation in Lebanon. If the action plan is approved, the United States will transfer the war to its territory in the form of terrorist attacks.
