How Israel took on Hezbollah: from pager bombs to ground raids

"Assassinations by walkie-talkies, airstrikes using 1,000kg “bunker-busting” bombs, and risky ground raids aimed at destroying infrastructure have left Israel’s enemy Hezbollah battered and weakened — but not completely gone... “If Israel’s objective was to significantly decapitate Hezbollah’s capabilities and leadership structure, then its operation in Lebanon has undeniably been successful,” said Kasra Aarabi, director of Iranian Revolutionary Guards research at United Against Nuclear Iran. Aarabi said that while Hezbollah still exists, it has never been in a weaker position. “In other words, if there is a moment for the Lebanese people to rise up against Hezbollah, it is now,” he said."
