New Delhi: It is not easy for the Israeli army to enter Lebanon on foot and confront Hezbollah. Former Israeli military officers believe that if Israel entered southern Lebanon, it would face Hezbollah's advanced anti-tank capabilities.
Hezbollah has thousands of RPGs. It will use them to destroy IDF armor and trophy defense systems and missiles.
Hezbollah stockpile of Kornet missiles
Hezbollah has a large stockpile of Kornet, Russia's best anti-tank guided missile. Last year, Hezbollah also presented the Tharalala system to the world during its military exercises. Two Cornet missiles are used in this system. The special thing is that this system is capable of firing both the missiles in less than a second.
Hezbollah has a large network of tunnels
Experts believe that Israeli forces will also face IEDs and landmines when they enter Lebanon. Hezbollah has laid a large number of landmines in southern Lebanon. On the lines of Hamas, Hezbollah has built a vast network of tunnels in southern Lebanon. Through this network, Hezbollah has the power to carry out major attacks.
How will Israel deal with one million fighters?
Experts also believe that Israel has definitely had an advantage in the war so far. But Hezbollah's army is the same. Israel has destroyed only its commanders and weapons stockpile, but approximately one million fighters are still in the organization. Israel has not yet succeeded in causing any major damage to Hezbollah's infantry. During the ground operation, Israeli soldiers will face these same Hezbollah fighters.
fighters have combat experience
Hezbollah fighters are like Hamas. Actually, Hezbollah fighters have combat experience. In 2013, Hezbollah sent fighters to Syria to fight in support of Bashar al-Assad's government. Here about seven thousand fighters of Hezbollah fought against ISI for six years. In 2019, Hezbollah withdrew its fighters.
Hezbollah also has Almas missiles. These missiles can destroy advanced types of tanks. These are manufactured by Iran. The special thing is that during the Second Lebanon War, Israel had released Spike missiles in Lebanon. Iran has since reverse-engineered the Almas missiles.
