Israel’s military said Monday there was no reason to launch a ground invasion of Lebanon “imminently” after an overnight attack from Lebanese armed group Hezbollah prompted Israel to retaliate with air strikes.
“There is nothing on the ground that constitutes going into ground invasion… imminently,” military spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani told journalists on whether Israel would send troops in Lebanon.
“In the short term, immediate time, the answer would be no,” Shoshani added.
