Nasrallah threatens to launch missiles into Israeli areas that have not yet been targeted

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah says the Lebanese terror group may soon target towns in Israel that haven’t so far been subjected to its rocket attacks if the IDF “continues to strike civilians.”

Lebanese official media reported yesterday that five people were killed in Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon, including three Syrian children. In response, the Shiite terror group fired 100 rockets that targeted several areas of northern Israel in four separate waves last night and early this morning.

In an address to mark the Shiite festival of Ashura, Nasrallah further warns Israel to refrain from a ground incursion into its northern neighbor.

“If your tanks come to southern Lebanon, you will not suffer a shortage of tanks, because you will have no tanks left,” he says, according to a report in the Hezbollah-affiliated Al Manar network.

The comment appears to refer to a response given by the IDF to a High Court petition earlier this week, in which the army stated that it does not have enough tanks to launch a pilot training program for female troops since many tanks were damaged in the war, contradicting previous statements by senior military officers.

Nasrallah vows to continue attacks against Israel as long as the war in Gaza persists, and denies alleged rumors that a diplomatic settlement has been reached to halt the conflict on the Lebanese border.

“All that is being circulated about a finalized agreement regarding the situation on the Lebanese front is incorrect,” he says.

The Hezbollah leader further pledges to rebuild border towns and make them “more beautiful than they were,” and praises the residents for providing a “steadfast environment” to fighters of the “resistance.”
