"It is in no ones interest — not Israel's, not the region's, not the world's — for this conflict to spread beyond Gaza."

Hezbollah has signalled it "is willing to go all the way" toward a final border settlement if there's a Gaza cease-fire.

"I am doing my duty to prevent Lebanon from entering the war."

"We were not interested in a conflict. But if Hezbollah does start one, it will finish on Israel's terms."

"I don't know when the war in the north [will happen]. I can tell you that the likelihood of it happening in the coming months is much higher than it was in the past."

"The situation on Israel's northern border demands change... [t]he stopwatch for a diplomatic solution is running out."

"We are shifting from being passive to actively pursuing Hezbollah."

"Netanyahu clearly wants war [with Hezbollah]."

"It is likely that there is going to be a war between Hezbollah and Israel within the next six to eight months."

Will There Be an Israel-Hezbollah War?

Lebanese militant group Hezbollah launched a drone attack on northern Israel's upper Galilee region. The Israeli military (IDF) said two of its soldiers were wounded and the attack ignited a fire.

Guardian

The attack appears not to be an escalation of violence but rather a part of its months-long battles along the Israeli border connected to the war in Gaza. However, Hezbollah did call its attack a response to Israel's recent killing of its top commander, Fouad Shurkur, and the leader of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh.

This comes after US Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned Sunday that Iran and Hezbollah could attack Israel by Monday or Tuesday. US Central Command Gen. Michael Kurilla is expected to travel to Israel Monday to prepare for the potential attack.

Axios

US Pres. Joe Biden and Vice Pres. Kamala Harris are expected to meet with White House national security officials Monday to discuss the matter, with Biden also set to call Jordan's King Abdullah II. Meanwhile, Blinken has urged "maximum restraint" on the part of Iran, Hezbollah, and Israel.

Al Arabiya

According to a White House official, the US is already deploying more fighter jets and Navy warships to the region. While the US says its actions are preventative rather than escalatory, several countries have suggested their citizens currently in Lebanon to leave, including Japan, Saudi Arabia, and France.
