Israeli official accuses US of endangering IDF soldiers by leaking Lebanon ground operation plans
Israel attack on Lebanon
A senior Israeli official accused the United Statesof endangering Israeli soldiers by leaking its plans for the Israeli ground operation in Lebanon, The Times of Israel reported.
On Monday (Sep 30), the official called the leaks by the US "dangerous", saying that it has put the Israeli troops in danger, according to Kan news.
“This was done even though the US supports the operation," the official said, adding, "but it is clear to us that the US is worried — and therefore they outed the operation to try to limit it.”
The official further said that "there will be no (diplomatic) arrangement in Lebanon before the end of the operation.”
This comes amid the reports that the ministers in Israel's political-security cabinet were left frustrated that the news of their planned invasion was leaked. Following the reports, an unnamed US security official confirmed yesterday to different news outlets of an impending 'limited' invasion into Lebanon.
