Written by Daniel Mercado

The Israeli invasion of Lebanon is nothing new, the invasion is claimed by the Zionist Entity to be justified and with the purpose of returning its own internally displaced citizens to northern Israel.

[2]

The Zionist Entity has attacked Lebanon at least 4,000 times since October 8^th of last year, according to a report made by Al Jazeera in April of this year, and the number of attacks has only continued to escalate. [3]

The Zionist Entity invaded Lebanon fully on October 1^st, but was pushed back by Iranian backed group, Hezbollah. The Zionist Entity has claimed that their aims are to destroy infrastructure and tunnels in the border. [4]
