Israel installs spy cameras on towers above concrete wall in southern Lebanon
The Israeli military has reportedly installed several surveillance cameras along the border between the occupied territories and Lebanon, amid high tensions between the Tel Aviv regime and Hezbollah and the former’s attempts to target senior figures of the Lebanese resistance movement in the area.
On Saturday, Israeli forces planted the new spying devices on towers above the concrete wall off the road that links the villages of Adaisseh and Kfar Kila, the Lebanese and Arabic-language online newspaper el-Nashra reported.
The development came only a week after a senior Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon was killed apparently by agents working for Israel’s Mossad spy organization.
Ali Mohammed Younes, of the southern Lebanese village of Jebchit, was pulled from his car, stabbed and shot on a road near Nabatieh.
Younes was reportedly in charge of operations to locate spies for and collaborators with the Israeli regime.
On Friday, the Israeli army threatened to strike Hezbollah positions in Syria.
The military posted grainy footage on its Twitter page, which purportedly showed the head of the Syrian Armed Forces 1st Corps, Luau Ali Ahmad Assad, “visiting Hezbollah positions in Syria.”
The footage, which was filmed from a distance, showed individuals wearing military fatigues greeting a man with military salutes and shaking hands with him in an open area.
The text accompanying the footage on the Israeli post read, “See the man with white hair? That's the head of the Syrian Armed Forces 1st Corps, Luau Ali Ahmad Assad. He's visiting Hezbollah positions in #Syria.”
“Our message: We see you. Consider this a warning,” the caption further read. “We won't allow Hezbollah to entrench itself militarily in Syria.”
It was unclear who had captured the footage, or whether it was of Assad visiting Hezbollah members in Syria.
