🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇱🇧 Confidential US report finds Israel unlikely to win against Hezbollah on second front

🔶️ The US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) found that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) would be too stretched by fighting on two fronts, with the air force already overworked by constant raids on Gaza.

🔶️ IDF pilots would face far more dangerous missions going up against Hezbollah’s powerful air defences, the DIA warned, according to a report in the Washington Post.

🔶️ On Sunday, the IDF said it had wrapped up combat operations in northern Gaza and completed the “dismantling” of Hamas’s command structure there.

🔶️ Tens of thousands of troops have already been withdrawn from Gaza, with some already being redeployed to the northern front in the event war breaks out there.

🔶️ Iran-backed Hezbollah has an arsenal of tens of thousands of rockets and missiles, and groups of experienced fighters who have battleground experience in Lebanon and Syria. Its commanders have also advised other Iran-backed militant groups in Yemen and Iraq.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️- An American intelligence and reconnaissance aircraft has departed al-Udeid airbase in Qatar, headed towards Yemen.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️- Preliminary reports of American fighters above Yemen.

🇺🇸🇬🇧🇾🇪⚡️- The Guardian has reported that the US and UK will be launching airstrikes against Yemen imminently.

🇮🇷🇾🇪⚡️- The Iranian intelligence vessel BEHSHAD suddenly departed from the southern sector of the Red Sea just some hours ago.

🇺🇸🇾🇪 - A summary of events, indicating an inevitable Western strike against Yemen:

-Permanent Iranian naval deployment to the Red Sea has suddenly departed urgently
-All civilian vessels traveling the Red Sea have suddenly listed themselves as "not linked to Israel" or have flagged themselves as Chinese vessels
-The IDF has suddenly withdrawn from northern Gaza, initially claiming a redeployment of forces to central and southern Gaza, but were deployed to the northern front with Lebanon
-Early stages of air sorties, both intelligence and combat, in Yemen from both the United States and the UK
-Confirmation from US and UK sources on an imminent strike against Ansar Allah in Yemen

It's looking like not only is a strike against Ansar Allah is an inevitability, but Israel is preparing for a significant escalation on the border with Lebanon. In all of this, it's very much possible that the US+UK strikes against Yemen could snowball into an open war between Hezbollah and Israel.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️- Ansar Allah (identifying as the Yemeni Armed Forces) have raised to full combat readiness in anticipation for Western strikes.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️- Ansar Allah has threatened to "burn the entire region" if the West attacks.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️- A military source within Ansar Allah stated the following: "If foreign forces consider attacking Yemen, our forces will open the gates of hell for Western forces in the Red Sea and the region, and if a fire is lit in the region, Washington and London will not be able to extinguish it."

🇮🇷🇾🇪⚡️- IRGC forces are on high alert, ahead of the imminent attacks on Yemen.

🇺🇸🇾🇪 - This specific aircraft is a Command & Control aircraft for aerial sorties. At this moment, fighter aircraft are in rotation around Yemen, likely waiting for this aircraft to begin tasking.

Airstrikes should begin within the next 2-4 hours.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️ - The Pentagon is holding an urgent security meeting.

🇺🇸🇾🇪⚡️- Israeli media reporting that weapons depots, missiles, and drones will be attacked tonight.
