Lebanon's "Hezbollah" issued a response message to Israel yesterday evening, highlighting the military sites located within Israeli cities. The message was accompanied by a video posted by Hezbollah's "War Media" that stated: "Oh Zionists, you have military and security targets within your cities."
In this context, Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah addressed Israeli Chief of Staff General Aviv Kachavi on the occasion of the "Martyrs' Leaders Anniversary," emphasizing that the party does not seek confrontation or war; however, if Israel imposes war, Hezbollah will engage. Nasrallah stated, "If you bomb a city, we will bomb a city; if you bomb villages, we will bomb settlements."
This statement comes after the Israeli Air Force initiated a sudden military maneuver in the northern region of the country simulating a conflict with Hezbollah. The Israeli army announced that the "Rose of Galilee" drill had started unexpectedly, under the supervision of Air Force Commander Major General Amikam Norkin, aimed at enhancing the air force's readiness for combat in the northern arena. The exercise simulates combat scenarios in the northern front and will train all air force systems on the fundamental tasks of the force, including maintaining air superiority, protecting the country’s airspace, as well as offensive operations and intelligence gathering.
