Estimate from (74) states 111,000 not 1.1 million refuges

In the current version article, where it states “ while in Lebanon, 1.2 million individuals have been displaced”, the article referenced has a much smaller estimate. 77.137.28.218 (talk) 16:02, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal to restrict scope of this article

[edit]

In the above discussion, I think there seems to be consensus that Oct 2023 - Sep 2024 marked a low-level phase of the conflict, and that no one called this low-level phase as "war", but now we've entered a much more intense phase of the conflict. So I propose that the scope of this article ends sometime in Sep 2024 and details about events in Oct 2024 go into 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon or a different article, but not this one.

Hmm, the ongoing RM wants a move to I Hez war. If that goes through, then it will be like the I Hamas set up (war + invasion) which, yea, does invite duplication. Selfstudier (talk) 18:01, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Selfstudier It sounds like you oppose the RM, its best you make your opinions known in the RM. Suppose the RM doesn't go through - would you agree with the above proposal I made? VR (Please ping on reply) 19:59, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would just set about making the invasion article the main going forward and take whatever from here as background. Selfstudier (talk) 21:32, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I support this proposal, there is a distinct phase where it was a conflict and one where it became a war The Great Mule of Eupatoria (talk) 03:54, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I too support this proposal, in-line with my !vote in the move proposal. Mr rnddude (talk) 10:56, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I note that merging the content into 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon would minimize the events that preceded the invasion; namely, the pager and walkie-talkie explosions, Israel's strikes against Lebanon (חיצי הצפון), and Hassan Nasrallah's assassination. Nasrallah stated that the pager explosions were "a declaration of war", and I'm inclined to believe that began the war against Hezbollah. However, it did not begin the invasion, which officially started on October 1 after brief incursions into Lebanon. I would normally support merging into the invasion article, but there is a degree of separation between the invasion and the war that suggests it is possible to maintain both concurrently, with information about the invasion being minimized in the article about the war. The invasion article, for instance, covers information about the "United States' waning influence" and "Personal motivations of Netanyahu" that is exclusive to the invasion. Thomas Friedman, for one, wrote an article about the anniversary of the October 7 attacks that contains mentions to the "Hamas-Hezbollah-Iran-Israel war"—as much as that framing is comically yet intentionally inaccurate—but omits information about Israel's invasion, which is largely not relevant to his points. As much as I question why an analysis section is relevant in an article about a highly contentious topic, if editors seek to include that information, they would be limited to articles specifically about the incursion. In addition, there is an impact to the aforementioned precursory events through Lebanese displacement, which is an article at Lebanese displacement during the Israel–Hezbollah conflict. An estimated 90,000 people left Lebanon following September 23, when חיצי הצפון (or Northern Arrows) began. In an article about the war, which presumably began on September 17, I would expect to see information about this displacement. Merging the content into the invasion article conflicts with that expectation. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 01:19, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@ElijahPepe what if merged that content into the invasion article, but rescoped that article to start mid-Sep (and moved it to a more appropriate name)? Alternatively, we can merge the info to a different article about the war.VR (Please ping on reply) 16:44, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Options

[edit]
CONSENSUS FOR OPTION 2
There seems to be consensus for option 2, namely that the scope of this article end at Sep 30, 2024, and all acts of hostilities beginning with the Oct 1 Israeli invasion go into 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. VR (Please ping on reply) 12:34, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The above RM was unsuccessful, meaning this article won't be moved to "war", leaving us with following options that I've tried to illustrate in a table.

Option Oct 8, 2023 — Sep 16, 2024 Sep 16, 2024 — Sep 30, 2024 Oct 1, 2024 — present Notes
1a Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon
1b Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon —> 2024 Lebanon war "Third Lebanon war" Same as option 1a, but requires a RM at 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon
2 Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon
3 Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) "September 2024 Lebanon escalation" 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon A new article is created to cover the events from Sep 16—Sep 30.
4 Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) 2024 Lebanon war Create a new parent article, possibly called "Third Lebanon war" that covers events Sep 16—present.
2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon

I prefer options 1a, 1b or 2 as I think they are the simplest. I oppose option 4, because it requires maintaining two articles in parallel (almost a WP:CFORK). Pinging ( Selfstudier—The Great Mule of Eupatoria—ElijahPepe—Mr rnddude) VR (Please ping on reply) 17:16, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2 articles is better than 3, and the invasion was 1 October, so Option 2 for me. Selfstudier (talk) 17:39, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
2. Having 1a or 1b would mean the infobox about the invasion of Lebanon would mismatch with article contents. Bitspectator ⛩️ 17:41, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I strongly opposed using "Third Lebanon war", which matches Israel's terminology about the second and first wars. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 20:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
2. I agree with Bitspectator that there would be a mismatch between the conflict and invasion articles with 1a and 1b and additionally that 1b leans too much to favouring a specific perspective on the conflict. Mr rnddude (talk) 22:19, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I’d lean towards 1b but with the title “2024 Lebanon war” The Great Mule of Eupatoria (talk) 17:47, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bitspectator@ElijahPepe@Mr rnddude@Selfstudier, what do you think of The Great Mule of Eupatoria's proposal? I've changed the title in the table accordingly.
Alternatively, @The Great Mule of Eupatoria would you also be ok with #2? VR (Please ping on reply) 22:59, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I oppose it. The invasion is notable, as is the war, but it didn't begin with the pager attacks. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 23:01, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Chomik1129 the above is the discussion for the scope of the article. You're welcome to give your opinions.VR (Please ping on reply) 17:38, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Cross-border aerial attacks and shelling between Israel and Hezbollah have been a major part of the conflict, and escalated since October 1. It wouldn't make sense for an article about the entire conflict since October 1 to be titled '2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon', since the invasion was just a small part of the conflict, limited to only a few kilometers from the border with the scope of destroying Hezbollah's infrastructure. I think a better name for an article that covers hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah since October 1 would be something along the lines of '2024 Israel–Hezbollah war', since this would make it clear that its scope includes all of the fighting between the two, and not just a single part of it. Or, cross-border attacks by Hezbollah and attacks in Syria could be included in Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) and 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon only covers the invasion and bombing of Lebanon. Chomik! (talk?) 19:57, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Chomik1129, I'm open to renaming 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon to 2024 Lebanon war (see option 1b above), once the scope is agreed upon. But I would strongly oppose "cross-border attacks by Hezbollah and attacks in Syria could be included in Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present) and 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon only covers the invasion and bombing of Lebanon." The reason is that RS don't separate Hezbollah attacks and Israeli attacks during the same time period as different topics. Post-Oct 1, the Israeli bombings, Israeli ground operations, Hezbollah rocketfire, shelling by both sides are all part of the same war and should be covered in a single (not multiple) articles. On a side note, it is also more difficult to maintain multiple articles.VR (Please ping on reply) 18:00, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hezbollah casualties

[edit]

There is an account on X that tracks publicly available information on the funerals of Hezbollah fighters killed. They put the number of confirmed dead Hezbollah fighters at 1103. The account is qalaatM. The information appears reliable with accompanying posters of killed fighters uploaded daily.

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 3 November 2024

[edit]

Source [76] nowhere supports the number of 1.4 Mio. displaced but 110,099 in Lebanon.

In northern Israel, the ongoing conflict has forced approximately 96,000 individuals to leave their homes,[75][70] while in Lebanon, over 1.4 million individuals have been displaced,[76]

Should at least be:

In northern Israel, the ongoing conflict has forced approximately 96,000 individuals to leave their homes,[75][70] while in Lebanon, over 110,000 individuals have been displaced,[76]

Further, official sources talk about 102'000 displaced people in Lebanon: https://www.intersos.org/en/conflict-in-south-lebanon/ thereby referring to IOM UN Displacement Tracking Matrix https://dtm.iom.int/reports/lebanon-mobility-snapshot-round-41-08-08-2024 Barthelmes (talk) 17:43, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Barthelmes, the 1.4 million figure also appears in a number of sources, for example here. I'm not sure what to make of it. Let's mention both figures for now. Alaexis¿question? 21:54, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually the latest IOM report says that there are 842k IDPs [1], so the discrepancy is not so large. Alaexis¿question? 21:57, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Even 550'000 people is an enormous discrepancy. But this is irrelevant to guidelines of correct quotation. A source is quoted and should be quoted correctly. At the time it was retrieved the number was 102'000 displaced. It is discrediting wikipedia as source to randomly assign quotes to numbers. If current quote is kept, it should be 102 thousand. If new quote is used, it has to state time of retrieval and quote the accurate number as of time of retrieval. The 1.4 mio is made up or comes from completely other source.

Proposal regarding the name of the conflict

[edit]

Consider mentioning the name Israel has given to its military operation against Hezbollah, מבצע חצי הצפון (Operation Arrows of the North) GeopoliticalSphygmomanometry (talk) 16:39, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Post scriptum, I see that it actually has been mentioned in the body of the article. However, I recommend mentioning it in the opening paragraph as is commonly done with other wars. GeopoliticalSphygmomanometry (talk) 16:42, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Was that the name of Israel's operation starting October 2023, or was it regarding the September 2024 actions? If its the latter, then it should not be mentioned in the opening paragraph as it relates only to the last two weeks of this conflict.VR (Please ping on reply) 18:32, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As Hezbollah not only was the first to violate and escalate this conflict and the first to commit war crimes, but also commits them in higher quantity and explicitly admitted them, it should come BEFORE israeli war crimes.

Result

[edit]

In the result, there's a need to add the agreement of Hezbollah to withdraw back to the litani river. And that Hezbollah ended up disassociating from gaza front, which was their main objective. Yitzhak1029 (talk) 00:38, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Hezbollah willing to stop the fighting regardless of Israel still fighting Hamas in Gaza is the main thing. since the first day of fighting they said nothing will make them stop unless israel stops fighting gaza and here they gave up this cause. 147.235.60.178 (talk) 07:35, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, the main objective of Hezbollah since October 8, 2023 was to pressure Israel into accepting a ceasfire in Gaza before any talks about a ceasefire in Lebanon. This was also the main point Nasrallah made in his last speech, and reiterated by Naim Qassem's first speech as a secertary general. This should count as a strategic victory for Israel as it isolates Hamas in the war. However, it is also worth noting that Israel added several new goals for the war such as disarming Hezbollah's military capabilities. Now since there is a ceasefire in effect which in theory states that Hezbollah must disintegrate their military infrastructure towards the border. If this does not prevent Hezbollah from rearming, and if they manage to return to pre-oct 8 status, then this should count as a victory for Hezbollah.
I also propose adding in the result section that Israel managed to prevent Hezbollah from launching a long planned invasion to conquer the Gallile. There are several documentations regarding the 20 year plan devised by Imad Mughniyeh and Ibrahim Aqil, and it was formally announced by former Hezbollah leader Nasrallah during a televised speech in 2011. 77.246.75.108 (talk) 11:28, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's not true. The prime minister of Israel never said he wants to "Disarm" Hezbollah and it was never one of the goals. it was said by a couple of ministers in haphazard way. 147.235.60.178 (talk) 12:36, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's an Israeli victory

[edit]

Victory=achieving war aims while preventing the enemy to achieve its own war aims

Israel war aims: force Hezbullah out of the conflict, allow the northern residents to return to their homes. Hezbullah's destruction was never a war aim.

Hezbullah war aims: force Israel to sign a truce with Hamas and end its operations on Gaza.

Outcome: Hezbullah signs a separate truce with Israel which allows the residents of northern Israel to return home. War in Gaza continued undisturbed.

Therefore: Israel achieved all it's war aims while Hezbullah fails to force Israel to end its war in Gaza. Thus, objectively it's an Israeli victory. Yg0r (talk) 15:49, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Israel may have succeeded in two things:
1. Separating the Lebanese front from Gaza front (Strategic victory)
2. Destroying the conquest of Galille plan which Hezbollah had planned for over 20 years
However, Israel Katz officially stated that a new goal for the war was the disarmament of Hezbollah's armed forces. In theory, the ceasefire terms should do that, but it is unlikely Hezbollah will comply. Therefore, Hezbollah's armed forces survival counts as a victory for Hezbollah. Farid7427 (talk) 16:01, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Israel Katz stated that in a press conference but it was never officially a war aim approved by the government. It was a single statement which was contradicted by the media which showed the government and war cabinet never approved it. So it was not an official war aim.

Infobox casualties

[edit]

Sorry but "three [anonymous] sources familiar with Hezbollah" according to the Times of Israel do not equate to an official Hezbollah claim or estimate. This is very poor. The last figure Hezbollah provided, which I believe was a week or so ago, was 521 (519 strictly speaking). As of now, the Lebanese government claims 3,800 people (combatants and civilians) were killed since October 2023. Name me a single Israeli war in which the vast majority of casualties were not civilians? Either way, whether Hezbollah's figure is accurate or not, the "4,000" figure is NOT official and should be deleted. 2A01:4B00:AB15:E900:F403:D489:E64D:D279 (talk) 16:11, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
