Fears of full-scale war between Hezbollah and Israel soar over regime’s recent terrorist acts

Tensions are escalating between Israel and the Hezbollah resistance movement amid fears of a full-scale war between the two sides following the regime’s recent terrorist operations in Lebanon.

Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah said on Thursday that it carried out new operations in support of Palestinian people in Gaza and in response to the regime’s strikes on southern Lebanon.

Hezbollah said it targeted Israel’s Al-Malkiya site with artillery shells, making a direct hit.  

Hezbollah's Katyusha rockets struck the command headquarters of the Hermon Brigade 810 at the Ma'aleh Golani Barracks as well as Shomera and Metat bases.

The Command Headquarters of Israel’s Western Brigade in the Ya'ara Barracks was also targeted with rockets.

The resistance group said it carried out 17 attacks against Israeli targets in the Galilee, the occupied Golan Heights, and the occupied Kfarchouba Hills on Thursday.

A Hezbollah missile and drone strike in northern Israel killed two Israeli soldiers and wounded 13 others in separate attacks on Thursday in southern Lebanon, the military said.

More communication devices explode in Lebanon day after pager blasts

An informed source told Press TV the detonated devices came from the same batch of cargo as the detonated pagers.

The new operations came after Israel claimed to have hit dozens of Hezbollah’s rocket launchers along with other infrastructure in its airstrikes in Lebanon.

The Israeli claimed that it carried out air strikes against "hundreds of rocket launcher barrels" as well as "approximately 100 launchers and additional terrorist infrastructure sites.”

The regime also carried out extensive airstrikes on villages in southern Lebanon.

Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah soared after explosions targeted pagers and other communication devices across Lebanon on Tuesday and Wednesday, killing more than 30 people, including two children, and wounding some 3,500 others.

Hezbollah, whose members were among the casualties, blamed the unprecedented attacks on Israel.

Hezbollah also pledged to retaliate against Israel following the deadly string of explosions.

Tel Aviv has so far declined to comment on the attacks, which have already heightened global concerns that the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah could escalate into a full-scale war.

‘Declaration of war’: Snippets from Hezbollah leader’s speech following device blasts

Following mass device explosions in Lebanon orchestrated by the Israeli regime, Hezbollah resistance movement leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah delivered a televised speech on Thursday.

Just hours before the blasts, Israel announced it was expanding its objectives in its war against the besieged Gaza Strip to also address its battle against Hezbollah along the Lebanese border.

Israel launched its brutal US-backed genocidal war on Gaza on October 7.

The regime’s genocidal war on Gaza has so far killed more than 41,272 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured tens of thousands of others. Thousands more are also missing and presumed dead under rubble.
