Israel has renewed its war threats against Lebanon if Hezbollah were to pursue its attack.
“Lebanon will pay the price if the war expands,” said Israeli war council member, Benny Gantz, on Wednesday.
“Iran knows that we will retaliate immediately, should it attack Israel,” he pursued.
For his part, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant stated that “whoever tries to attack Israel will face a strong defense.”
“Israel will respond to those who try to attack it inside their territory,” declared Gallant during a tour of Israel’s northern border.
“We stand by the fact that our enemy is unaware of the surprises we have prepared for it,” he added.
On the southern front, artillery exchanges between Hezbollah and Israel resumed on Wednesday, with the Israeli army bombing Odaisseh, Kfar Kila, Blida, and Tallet Hmames in the afternoon.
The Israeli army also raided the towns of Wata Khiam and Aita al-Shaab.
Hezbollah announced that it had attacked the Sammaka position in the Kfarchouba hills, as well as the Zebdine barracks.
