Zionists Told to Stay in Hideouts
BEIRUT (Kayhan Intl.) -- Hezbollah carried out an operation on Monday against the occupying regime of Israel’s military in the occupied Shebaa Farms, Lebanese sources familiar with the operation said.
The operation was made in response to an attack by the Zionist regime in Syria in which a Hezbollah fighter was martyred last week, one of the sources said.
The Israeli military said there had been a "security incident” near the Lebanese border and Israeli media reported there was an exchange of fire in the area with Hezbollah fighters.
The occupying regime’s military ordered residents in the area to stay indoors.
A Reuters witness in Lebanon counted dozens of Israeli shells hitting the occupied Shebaa Farms area, landing near an Israeli position. Fires were burning and smoke was rising from the area.
A reporter for Al-Manar television network said Israeli forces were shelling an area of Kfarchouba village in the southern Lebanese province of Nabatieh as the regime’s warplanes flew over Shebaa Farms.
Following the martyrdom of two Hezbollah members in Damascus last August, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the resistance movement’s secretary general, vowed it would respond if the Zionist regime killed any more of its fighters in the country.
Hezbollah has deployed fighters in Syria as part of efforts to support President Bashar al-Assad in a conflict against the most brutal foreign-backed terrorists.
The occupying regime of Israel sees the presence of Hezbollah in Syria as a strategic game-changer which has turned the war tide in favor of the Syrian forces.
The Zionist regime has mounted hundreds of raids on Syria to slow the Syrian army advances and prevent the rout of terrorists whom it has been treating in the occupied Golan Heights whenever they are injured.
The last exchange of fire between Hezbollah and the Zionist regime took place in September 2019, when the Lebanese movement launched rockets across the southern border at an Israeli vehicle. It came in response to an Israeli drone attack on Beirut’s southern suburbs.
The occupying regime of Israel and Hezbollah fought in a month-long war in Lebanon in 2006. Hezbollah was able to crush the Zionist regime’s ground invasion of southern Lebanon and attack military targets, dealing a serious blow to Israel’s boast of invincibility.
Hezbollah’s operation came after its deputy Secretary general Sheikh Naim Qassem reiterated the resistance movement’s readiness to confront any Israeli aggression.
Speaking in an interview with Al-Mayadeen TV channel on Sunday, Sheikh Qassem declined to clarify the movement’s response to an Israeli attack that killed one of Hezbollah fighters in Syria last week.
"Let the Israelis have their own estimations and calculations in this regard,” he said.
Hezbollah announced the death of Ali Kamel Mohsen, one of its members, in an Israeli airstrike in Damascus on July 20 and promised retaliation.
Sheikh Qassem played down recent Israeli threats, saying there were "mere chest-beating”.
His remarks came after Israeli war minister Benny Gantz warned Syria and Lebanon that they would

His remarks came after Israeli war minister Benny Gantz warned Syria and Lebanon that they would
be held responsible for any attacks against Israel coming from their territory. Sheikh Qassem dismissed the prospect of an all-out war with the Zionist regime in the next few months, saying "Israel’s political confusion and low expectation from war outcomes as well as U.S. President Donald Trump’s quagmire eliminate the possibility of an imminent eruption of the war”. But he promised Tel Aviv will be delivered yet another defeat if it launched an aggression. "If Israel decides to go to war with us, then we will confront them, and the 2006 War will be the model for our response,” Sheikh Qassem said. Gantz made his threats during a visit to the border between the occupied territories and Lebanon on Sunday, where he said the Israeli regime was "prepared for all possibilities”. Shortly later, an Israeli spy drone crashed inside Lebanon, according to a military spokeswoman of the occupying regime.
