Weekly Commentary: Hezbollah’s Most Dangerous Rockets and Missiles Are North
of the Litani River
Dr. Aaron Lerner, 6 December 2023

It should be noted that the withdrawal of Hezbollah from the territory south
of the Litani River alone would fail to neutralize the most dangerous threat
to the Jewish state: the mid-range and long-range rockets and missiles which
Hezbollah has deployed north of the Litani.

In fact, it has been suggested that the reason various Israeli officials
warn that Beirut will suffer greatly in a full-scale conflagration with
Hezbollah is that many of these rockets and missiles are positioned within
the civilian population of Beirut.

While the presence of Hezbollah south of the Litani River can make life
impossible for Israeli communities close to the Lebanese border, it is the
mid-range and long-range missiles which threaten to cause tremendous damage
to vital infrastructure and other targets during the “window” before the
Israeli Air Force (IAF) destroys them in a conflagration.

While it would be absolutely fantastic if the international community
somehow causes Hezbollah to both withdraw its forces and destroy its
missiles and rockets, a deal according to which we guarantee not to act
against the mid- and long-range rockets and missiles north of the Litani in
return for a withdrawal of Hezbollah from south of the Litani River would be
a disaster.
