The IDF is operating at high tempo in Lebanon with the understanding the campaign could end at any moment, according to military commentator Noam Amir. Amir said Israel will avoid striking the Dahieh district of Beirut as long as an agreement is imminent, barring a dramatic incident.
Military commentator Noam Amir said the IDF is accelerating its operations in southern Lebanon, working at a high tempo with the understanding that the campaign could be halted at any moment by a political agreement. Speaking on Monday evening, Amir stated that as long as a deal is imminent — reportedly between the US and Iran and covering Lebanon — Israel will not strike the Dahieh neighborhood in Beirut, Hezbollah's stronghold, unless a dramatic incident occurs. The assessment aligns with earlier reports from The Zioneer, which noted the IDF is operating "against the clock" to achieve battlefield achievements before diplomatic intervention halts the campaign. Amir's remarks reinforce the sense of urgency in the military timeline, as diplomatic channels appear close to finalizing a framework. The key constraint is that Israel refrains from operations in central Beirut's Dahieh district while negotiations remain pending.
