Why has Israel invaded Lebanon?

The Telegraph  

Israel has launched what is says is a limited ground invasion into Lebanon following months of tension on the border. A “limited” invasion could be an attempt to simply clear southern Lebanon of Hezbollah fighters and positions in order to restore calm to northern Israel and allow residents to return. But for Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, this could be part of a wider plan to fully invade Lebanon and remove Hezbollah from power entirely, rather than just kill its members in the south. In that scenario, it is unclear whether Israel plans to occupy southern Lebanon, create a demilitarised zone, or simply leave the area completely after completing their objectives. Northern Israel has been under near-constant rocket fire from Hezbollah since Oct 7, forcing some 60,000 to flee their homes near the northern border north.
