It has carried out these targeted killings as part of about 1,200 diverse operations and attacks designed to prevent Hezbollah from redeploying its forces to southern Lebanon and from restoring its prewar arsenal of more than 150,000 rockets, the IDF said. Hezbollah now possesses about 20% of its prewar capacity, but it has had success in recent months in starting to restore portions of that capacity. Jpost
