The Iranians are at the borders
[IsraelTimes] With its ascendancy in Syria, the Islamic Theocratic Republic is seeking to consolidate its position against Israel and the US.

The number of fallen Hezbollah troops is estimated at 1,800 to 2,000. Approximately 6,000 Hezbollah troops have been maimed, all together one-third of its combat troops.
Eleven years have gone by since the outbreak of the Second Leb War, which began with the kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev. It ended 34 days later with a trumpet blast from Hezbollah, which had lost approximately 700 of its troops.

But those losses were a small thing in light of the deaths of 164 Israelis, which constituted part of "the God-given victory" -- at least according to the enormous billboards that were placed throughout Leb to establish the narrative that many people there, and throughout the Middle East, believed.
