A senior Hezbollah commander was killed on Wednesday in an Israeli airstrike in southern Lebanon. He was one of the highest-ranking officials in the terror group to be killed in nine months of fighting along the border. The
terror group responded by firing at least 100 rockets at northern Israel on Wednesday afternoon. Hezbollah confirmed the death of Muhammad Nimah Nasser, also known as Abu Nimah, from the south Lebanon town of Haddatha, following reports of the strike. Nasser was killed in a strike in the coastal city of Tyre. Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency said “an enemy drone targeted...

How much do the Mullahs care for the well-being of the Lebanese? While Hasan Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, repeats in Beirut the threats of his puppet-masters in Tehran, who have described the massive destruction they are prepared to visit on the “Zionist entity,” many Lebanese, horrified at what they see as
a march toward war with Israel, have been filling social media with both their anguished calls for peace, and with denunciations of Hezbollah for dragging the country into a war that almost all Lebanese, save for the members of Hezbollah, do not want, for they remember what happened...

In a War with Hezbollah, What Will Happen to Israel’s Electrical Grid?

How Israelis are preparing A war with Hezbollah now looms, but perhaps, since both sides know that they will suffer terrible damage, it will continue to be avoided. Hezbollah
has 130,000 rockets and missiles, some of which, through sheer numbers, managed to avoid interception by Israel’s three-layered anti-missile defense, consisting of Arrow-2 and Arrow-3, David’s Sling, and Iron Dome. Even now, the IDF must be calculating how many, in that vast array of rockets and missiles, can be destroyed on the ground, before they are launched, by Israeli airstrikes and missiles. And the IDF has to estimate, too, how many...

Lebanon Hezbollah MP Mohammad Raad is advocating for penetrating “the heart” of Western societies through “investing” in Western university students protesting against Israel in order to subvert American college campuses and increase support for the Palestinians. In an interview with Russia Today TV earlier this month, Raad, who heads Hezbollah’s Loyalty to
the Resistance parliamentary bloc in the Lebanese parliament, highlighted the strategic importance of engaging with Western university students participating in pro-Palestinian demonstrations. According to a translation of his remarks reported by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), he stressed that the Iran-backed terrorist organization Hezbollah should capitalize...

Joint Chiefs of Staff head Charles Q. Brown warned on Monday that the US may not be able to help defend Israel against an all-out war with Hezbollah in the same way that it stepped in during the Iran drone attack in April. Brown, a US Air Force general, also said that
Iran “would be more inclined to support Hezbollah."

Airport whistleblowers have alleged that Hezbollah is storing large quantities of Iranian weapons, missiles, and explosives at Beirut's main civilian airport, according to the Telegraph. Among the weapons allegedly stored at Rafic Hariri International Airport are Iranian-made Falaq artillery rockets, Fateh-110 and M-600 short-range missiles, and road-mobile ballistic missiles with ranges exceeding
150 miles. The whistleblowers also claim the presence of AT-14 Kornet anti-tank guided missiles, Burkan short-range ballistic missiles, and RDX explosives. An airport worker expressed fears about the potential consequences of an attack or explosion at the airport, drawing comparisons to the devastating 2020 Beirut port blast. "Beirut...

A complete victory (by Israel) in the Gaza Strip could shake Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah's confidence and demonstrate the potential consequences of conflict with Israel. In the complex web of dilemmas facing Israeli decision-makers, the war to decisively defeat the Hamas terror organization must remain a cornerstone of policy and action. After
Oct. 7, there is no room for maneuver – any other outcome will have far-reaching consequences. A determined effort to achieve all our objectives in the Gaza Strip will also shake Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah's confidence in the effectiveness of his attrition strategy against Israel and provide him...

Israel’s power grid is vulnerable to a Hezbollah attack that could render it “uninhabitable” 72 hours later, Haaretz reported on 21 June. According to the CEO of a company that manages and oversees Israel’s electrical systems on behalf of the government, Israel is entirely unprepared for a war with Hezbollah that would
likely target the country’s power infrastructure. “We are not ready for a real war. We live in a fantasy world, in my eyes,” said Shaul Goldstein, head of Noga – the Israel Independent System Operator. Goldstein made the comments while speaking at a conference organized by The Institute...

Hezbollah Chief Claims 100,000 Terrorists Ready to Attack Israel, Threatens Cyprus

The head of the Shiite Lebanese terrorist organization Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, threatened to expand his war against Israel in a speech on Wednesday, boasting that he allegedly has 100,000 terrorists at his disposal and suggesting war with Cyprus may also be imminent. Hezbollah,
one of many Iranian proxy terrorist organizations, has long maintained ties with the Sunni jihadist group Hamas. The group has expanded its attacks on Israel since October 7, when Hamas terrorists launched an unprecedented invasion of Israel that resulted in an estimated 1,200 deaths, the abduction of about 250 people, and widespread torture, rape, and other atrocities....

Israel warned about the prospects of an “all-out war” in Lebanon after Hezbollah militants published disturbing drone footage threatening the Jewish state – as Hamas’ representative in Lebanon claimed the terror group would carry out the Oct. 7 massacre all over again if given the chance. As
tensions boil along the Israel-Lebanon border, the Iran-backed Hezbollah terrorist group published a roughly 10-minute video on Tuesday, allegedly taken by drone, depicting several Israeli military sites and residential cities that were tagged “highly populated.” Israeli officials slammed the propaganda video as an unabashed threat against the Jewish state, warning the Hamas allies...

A video went viral on Thursday that showed Israeli troops using a trebuchet to lob fireballs over the wall near the Israeli border with Lebanon, apparently to clear brush. The
Israeli broadcaster KAN published a video of the “creative solution” the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers used to reportedly clear dense brush near the border with Lebanon. Trebuchets, which drop a heavy weight to propel a long throwing arm with a sling assembly on the end, have considerably longer range and better accuracy than older catapult designs. They were regarded as such a marvel of technology in their day that...

Nasrallah realizes the IDF can kill him': Hezbollah leadership shaken after Israeli elimination

"The powerful elimination worries Hezbollah members. They
now understand that the IDF knows much more about them than they know about us," says Professor Amatzia Baram. Approximately 250 rockets were launched on Wednesday towards northern Israel, disrupting the holiday calm with successive alerts. Rockets that exploded in open areas caused fires. In the city of Tiberias, a siren was activated for the first time since October. These launches come after the assassination of senior Hezbollah official Sami Taleb Abdullah, whose rank was equivalent to a brigadier general in the IDF. For the past 20 years, Abdullah had led rocket fire...

Citizen Watch Report ^
Hezbollah, the Lebanese militant group, has indeed fired a massive barrage of rockets into northern Israel as a retaliation for the killing of a top commander. This
escalation comes amid regional tensions and while U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is in the region pushing for a cease-fire proposal. The danger posed by Hezbollah’s missile arsenal is real, and their attacks have targeted both Israeli forces and civilian areas.
