| 20240917 | Israel says halting Hezbollah attacks is now a war goal as officials warn of a wider operation | Lebanon | Israel said Tuesday that halting Hezbollah’s attacks in the country’s north to allow residents to return to their homes is now an official war goal, as it considers a wider military operation in Lebanon that could ignite an all-out conflict. |
| 20240917 | Israel sets new war goal of returning residents to the north | Lebanon | Israel has made the safe return of residents to the north of the country an official war goal, the prime minister's office has said.

| 20240917 | Netanyahu says returning Israelis to north a war goal | Lebanon | Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu says the current war's goals have been expanded. |
| Comment: the description of the goal is disseminated language (hasbara) as it is about another move taken by Netanyahu to buy time to keep the corruption trial away that certainly would lead to a jail term.

Mohamad Elmasry, professor at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, has told Al Jazeera that while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long promised to open a northern front, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant had so far been cautious. Yet, Gallant’s remarks on Monday that the window was closing for a diplomatic solution to the standoff with Hezbollah in southern Lebanon signalled a shift, just as the Israeli media is reporting that Netanyahu is looking to replace him. “Gallant is taking very seriously these [reports] that Netanyahu is prepared to dismiss him,” Elmasry told Al Jazeera, adding that such threats may be “influencing his decision-making” and eroding his resolve to oppose a military intervention in Lebanon. |
