Israel Warns Hezbollah to Stay Out of Gaza War to Avoid Lebanon's Destruction

Israel's national security adviser warned Hezbollah not to join the Gaza war, saying it could lead to Lebanon's "destruction".

Israel is trying to avoid a two-front war by focusing on Gaza while Hezbollah has kept clashes on the Lebanese border limited.

Israel made an intelligence failure in assessing that Hamas was deterred from attacking.

Reports that Egypt warned Israel of an impending attack were dismissed as "fake news".

Israel's Shin Bet chief received unusual intelligence before the Hamas attack but it was not a concrete warning.
