Israel has cleared landmines and established new barriers on the frontier between the Golan Heights and a demilitarized strip bordering Syria, indicating a potential expansion of ground operations against Hezbollah. This move may allow Israel to strike Hezbollah from further east along Lebanon's border and create a secure area for reconnaissance and prevention of infiltration. Additional unreported details reveal that Israel is moving the fence separating the demilitarized zone toward the Syrian side and building more fortifications. The military action could widen the conflict involving Israel, Hezbollah, Hamas, Iran, and potentially the US.
