From the transcript

"The ground invasion of Lebanon is underway. After weeks of crushing airstrikes by the nation of Israel, directed against the militant non-state actor Hezbollah, and after a precision targeted campaign that decap itated much of Hezbollah's leadership, Israeli troops are on the sovereign soil of their northern neighbor nation. Israel's stated intent is clear.

To demolish Hezbollah's fighters and infrastructure in the Lebanese south, pushing them so far and destroying them so thoroughly that northern Israel will be safe for many years to come.

But Hezbollah's world fight back is no less obvious, and with thousands of formidable Hezbollah fighters believed to be scurrying across southern Lebanon, the situation there will almost certainly get worse before it gets better.
