Hezbollah
Israeli defense sources suspect Iran is setting up a new weapons smuggling route to its Lebanese proxy, Hezbollah—report.
The Lebanese terror group would not need help from Syria or Iran to build rudimentary chemical warheads, according to The Alma Center defense research body.
Israeli defense research group reports that a truck convoy carrying weapons for Hezbollah was also hit.
Hezbollah’s terrorist army has caused severe direct economic damage to the people of Lebanon, an army official said.
The drone attack served as a “deterrent” that tilted negotiations over the maritime border in Lebanon’s favor, says Michel Aoun.
The strike is the third attributed to Israel within the span of a week; UK-based war monitor says strikes killed four “Hezbollah collaborators.”
Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid hails the agreement as a “tremendous” diplomatic, military and economic achievement for Israel.
A signing ceremony is scheduled to take place in the afternoon at the United Nations base in Naqoura.
IDF Military Intelligence Research Division members and Mossad researchers argue that any quiet achieved via the agreement would be temporary—report.
Critics say Israel gave Lebanon 100% of its initial negotiating position.
Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu opposes the agreement on the grounds that it sends money to Hezbollah and allows Iran to get its hands on the Qana gas field.
Hezbollah chief Hasan Nasrallah voiced approval for the prospective agreement, saying, “We all know that that the enemy fears war more than the Lebanese do.”
