If Israel starts a land operation in Lebanon, it will turn into a very severe conventional war

‘If Israel starts a land operation in Lebanon, it will turn into a very severe conventional war’ “If a huge escalation [takes place] and Israel takes a decision to engage in a ground invasion, we may witness another form of regional war. This would be a very severe conventional war,” expanding not just through south Lebanon, but far off theaters in Yemen and Iraq, affecting trade and energy security, and even the upcoming US presidential elections. “And of course, there would be more casualties. Infrastructure will be destroyed in both countries. This is not something that some international actors want,” Yeghia Tashjian, a Beirut-based political analyst and researcher at the Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs, American University of Beirut, told Sputnik.
