IDF tours new Lebanon security zone post-ceasefire

The commander of the Israeli Nahal Brigade, Colonel Arik Moyal, recently toured the new security zone in southern Lebanon, specifically in Aita al-Sha'ab, and stated that troops can now operate there freely. However, Israeli reservists who have served hundreds of days since the war's beginning have voiced a contradictory assessment. When asked if the threat to residents of northern Israel has been removed, the reservists replied, "We tend to believe that it has not." This dissent highlights a gap between the military's declared operational success and the ground-level perception of ongoing risk.
