Hezbollah 'dealing seriously' with Israeli threats, mobilizes fighters

Hezbollah is “dealing seriously with the threats that are being launched by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his war team,” a prominent Shiite Duo source said.

Hezbollah “will not stand idly by and has declared general mobilization among its fighters, who are now fully prepared to confront the Israeli threats, although it does not want war and is not seeking it,” the source told Asharq al-Awsat newspaper.

The source also noted that “Hezbollah’s strikes deep in Israel come in response to Tel Aviv’s targeting of areas in the depth of northern and western Bekaa.”

“This what Hezbollah has said to top Lebanese state officials and the UNIFIL forces,” the source added.
