This is CBSI on the world.

I'm John Batchel.

I welcome my colleagues Bill Rajo Senior Fellow Foundation for the Defense of Democracy.

My co-host, he keeps the Long War Journal.

And we're very, very, very happy to be joined by David Dayud,

who files routinely at Long War

Journal, especially on Hisbalah, but all of the actors surrounding Israel at the behest of the

Tehran regime.

David, thank you for joining your most recent summary of the conflict between Hisbalah and the IDF inside Lebanon recounts incidents,

repeated incidents of provocations or suspect provocations, but at the same time we're dealing

with a Lebanese government that is fragile to non-transparent.

Generally, right now, what would you say is the relationship between the IDF and Isbalah?

Are they standing off?

Are they an active conflict?

What does it look like on the ground?

Good evening to you, David.

Good evening, John.

Well, look, the IDF is continuing its operations in Lebanon.

As I'm seeing from my reports on a weekly basis, certainly occasionally on a daily basis,

this includes assassinations, destruction of Hezbollah weapons caches, infrastructure,

weapons shipments occasionally from Syria. Hezbollah has been

quietly taking it on the chin, so to speak. They're not responding in kind, deliberately so.
