Report says Israel 'preparing strike' against Hezbollah as Adraee addresses Mikati
The Israeli army is preparing to deal a “strong blow” to Hezbollah in response to the escalation of its attacks today, Israeli right-wing newspaper Maariv said on Sunday.
An Israeli army spokesman later said that a fighter jet and other aircraft attacked several Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, including "a military compound containing a warehouse of weapons and military infrastructure."
Israeli army Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee meanwhile addressed a message to caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati.
“At a time the Lebanese premier has said that he is reassured over the rationality of Hezbollah’s actions, the saboteurs of the terrorist party fired ant-tank shells at Israeli civilians from the electricity company, wounding several of them,” Adraee said.
“This is a terrorist, irrational attack that targeted civilians and is risking Lebanon as a state. I believe that the Lebanese premier should not be reassured over the rationality of Hezbollah’s actions,” Adraee added.
