Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 11 March 2025

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

What I think should be changed:

Add result to the info-box

Why it should be changed:

It seems that the conflict has finished. Many sources claim that Israel won, and I couldn't find sources that claim the opposite.

References supporting the possible change:

From a shared article by ISW[1] and AEI[2]:
"Israeli operations in Lebanon have defeated Hezbollah and compelled the group to end its involvement in the October 7 War"

From Atlantic Council[3]:
"A win for the Lebanese and Israeli peoples and governments; a loss for Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas"

From BBC[4]:
"The group has told its followers that the loss in the war is a victory, but many know the truth is different"

From BESA[5]:
"The organization ... in light of its defeat in the campaign"

From rfe/rl[6], which acording to WP:RSP, is considered 'No consensus', but nothing specific to this \ Arab-Israel conflicts:
"Lebanon Cease-Fire Deal Seen As Major Victory For Israel"

From Responsible Statecraft[7]:
"Netanyahu ... has declared victory. There is some truth to Netanyahu's narrative"

Not done The article does not mention that this is a victory for Israel. Before adding "Israeli victory" to the infobox, the text should include at least a few lines supporting that claim. So I am adding "answered=yes" to the request. If you don't agree, please feel free to state your arguments and change into "answered=no". Friendly, Lova Falk (talk) 09:35, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
