In a bold statement that has sent shockwaves through the region, high-ranking Hezbollah sources have declared their readiness to respond to any Israeli aggression in Lebanon, including a potential ground invasion. This marks a pivotal moment as the group breaks its silence on Israel's recent threats of retaliation.
The tensions began after a rocket attack on Saturday, which Israel blames on Hezbollah. The attack, which killed 12 people in the occupied Golden Heights, has led to a wave of promises from Israel for a "significant and harsh response." Hezbollah, however, denies any involvement, setting the stage for a confrontation that many fear could escalate into a full-blown conflict.
Our Lebanon correspondent, Zena, reports live from the capital, Beirut, explaining that this is the first time Hezbollah has commented on the Israeli threats. "Hezbollah is taking these threats very seriously," she notes. The group has vowed to retaliate against any strike, whether limited or extensive, sending a clear message to Israel that any aggression will be met with defiance.
Despite the heightened tensions, foreign envoys have been actively trying to mediate the situation. They've urged Hezbollah not to retaliate against any Israeli strike, hoping to contain the conflict and prevent it from spiraling out of control. These envoys have also劝说 Israel to avoid targeting civilians and Lebanon's infrastructure, aiming to keep the confrontation from widening.
The ongoing confrontation between Hezbollah and the Israeli military has been largely contained to the border region for the past 10 months, focusing primarily on military targets. However, the recent attack and Israel's threats have been described as a "tipping point," indicating where the trajectory of the conflict is heading. Hezbollah, while skeptical of a ground offensive, is ready to respond if Israel follows through.
For the people of Lebanon, the prospect of a widening conflict is a mix of familiar anxiety and uncertainty. While life continues in the capital and southern cities, there is growing concern. The flight schedule at Beirut's only international airport has been disrupted, with some airlines halting flights during the peak summer tourist season. Some expatriates are considering leaving the country early, while others remain steadfast.
