An Israeli security source tells the Saudi news channel Al-Hadath that there will be “no immunity for any politician or military figure in Hezbollah, and even for its supporters.”

The source also adds that the IDF’s new offensive against the Lebanese terror group “will be broad and comprehensive and may include a [ground] invasion.”

Israel launched dozens of strikes in Lebanon this morning after the terror group fired rockets and drones at Israel overnight.
