Casualty and losses box missing some live breaks on Israel side

"Fajr" should link to the weapon, not the prayer

In the sentence "attacked and destroyed 59 stationary medium-range Fajr rocket launchers", the word "Fajr" links to the prayer https://en.m.wikipedia.org/Fajr_prayer.

It ought to link to the weapon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/Fajr-5.

I'd edit it myself, but I don't have permission. Warsage (talk) 00:53, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Lars Adaktusson as a neutral source

In the Media coverage section, there's a section where Lars Adaktusson is used a source with him only being described as a journalist. Adaktusson is in fact the current chairman of the Sweden-Israel Friendship Association and was previously the chair of pro-Israel lobby organisation European Israel Public Affairs. I feel this information should be included if he is used as a source. Conspiracy Raven (talk) 20:49, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

End date

Ceasefire was August 14, but the war officially ended on September 8 just saying that info box should include that. Dilbaggg (talk) 06:53, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Misspelling of hezbollah under "hezbullah prisoners"

title says it all Shrub4TheDub (talk) 08:11, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

"Inconclusive"?

Let's be honest here, I think we all know who won this conflict. Israel failed to achieve anything, failed to really impact Hezbollah's ability to fight, suffered heavy casualties, gave Iran and the Axis of Resistance stronger support in Lebanon, and Hezbollah remained an effective fighting force and we could probably make the argument that this conflict made them stronger and more effective in fighting Israel. We must also remember Hezbollah isn't a nation, so for Israel to lose to an organization that was the underdog through the whole war, it seems like a huge loss for Israel. To say this was inconclusive would give into an already major Israel bias on Misplaced Pages. Mauzer's random BS (talk) 03:03, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

Add Lebanese Armed Forces to infobox?

There seemed to have been several confrontations between Israeli army and Lebanon army during the war:

  • Israel attacked Lebanese Army Barracks.
  • Israel attacked Lebanese Air Force base
  • Lebanese army opened fire on Israeli helicopters trying to land
  • According to this source, supposedly 49 Lebanese soldiers were killed.
