Israeli ground operations in Lebanon remain limited, State Dept. says

The United States assesses that Israel’s ground operations in Lebanon so far continue to be limited, the State Department says.

Forces have been operating in towns across the border to dismantle Hezbollah’s extensive infrastructure in the area, while engaging in gun battles with terror operatives.

State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller tells reporters that Washington expects Israel to target Hezbollah in Lebanon in a way that complies with international humanitarian law and minimizes civilian casualties.
