Hezbollah threatens strong response to Israeli airstrikes in Baalbek
Hezbollah threatens a “stronger” response to earlier Israeli strikes in the Baalbek area in northeastern Lebanon, where the military targeted what it says were two Hezbollah command centers.
Those strikes came in response to a barrage of some 100 rockets fired from Lebanon on northern Israel earlier today.
“Hezbollah will not be silent about the Israeli attacks,” a source with the Iran-backed terror group tells the London-based publication The New Arab, also known as Al-Araby Al-Jadeed. “The response will be the same and stronger.”
“All options are open and Hezbollah is prepared and ready for any expansion” of hostilities,” the source says.
