Three Israeli members of Knesset warned Prime Minister Netanyahu that the occupation military’s current plan for land incursion into Lebanon could 'result in a tragic failure with unprecedented consequences,' Israeli media reported.

Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom reported that three Israeli lawmakers, members of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, warned the government against the plan a month ago.

The letter, also sent to members of the occupation government, read: “According to the information in our possession, the implementation of the operational plan drawn up by the Israeli army could lead to a tragic failure with unprecedented consequences.

The security officials are deeply mistaken in their understanding of the enemy's strategy.” The MPs stressed in the letter that they support a ground incursion into Lebanon, but believed that the current plan 'will lead to a stalemate,” according to the Israeli daily.

“The plan for Lebanon has not learned from the mistakes made during the operation in Gaza and that it is crucial to define the objective of the war as the destruction of Hezbollah's governmental and military capabilities, rather than simply pushing it away from the border.” They added that 'the planned action in southern Lebanon will not eliminate the threat of Hezbollah's fire capabilities, which are mostly deployed north of the Litani River and can reach Haifa, Tel Aviv, and even beyond.' The report comes as the Zionist entity is on alert over ahead an anticipated retaliation by Hezbollah and Iran after the assassination of senior Hezbollah Jihadi commander Fuad Shokr in Beirut’s Dahiyeh and Hamas Politburo Chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
