The intervention will take place on Friday at 3:00 p.m. local time (1:00 p.m. GMT) during a ceremony to “honor the martyrs who sacrificed their lives on the road to Jerusalem,” Hezbollah announced this Sunday in a statement.
Since the war waged once morest Israel in 2006, the cleric has lived in an unknown location and has not appeared in public for years, which is why his speeches are usually broadcast on related television stations and on giant screens during events organized by the Shiite group.

Friday’s will be his first public words since the start of the Gaza war on October 7 and since a day later Hezbollah’s cross attacks with Israeli forces began across the de facto border between both countries.
The clashes on the divide have intensified over time until they have become an almost continuous exchange of missiles and bombings, which have already left 47 dead in the ranks of the Shiite formation and almost 29,000 internally displaced people on the Lebanese side alone.

Nasrallah’s silence fueled fears that Hezbollah would decide to get directly involved in the Gaza war and that Lebanon would become a second front for Israel, something that the Lebanese government tries to avoid at all costs with intense contacts at the domestic level. and international.

The armed movement has surrounded its plans with uncertainty, although many experts believe that one of its main red lines would be the beginning of a major ground offensive on the Gaza Strip that poses an imminent danger to the survival of Hamas.
Hezbollah attacked from the northern border with 16 anti-tank missiles that fell on unpopulated towns. It is double the rockets launched on Saturday by Lebanese terrorists.
Army sources indicated to Infobae that one of the missiles hit an Israeli building, but it was unoccupied.
In a statement, the IDF added that a terrorist operating a drone that approached Israeli airspace in the security fence area was also identified. The extremist was shot down by an Israeli drone, while another was also killed when approaching the security fence in Hanita.
“Since the beginning of the war, IDF Northern Command soldiers have taken down terrorist cells in Lebanon. “Most of them were killed before they managed to fire into Israeli territory,” the Army noted in the text.
He added: “IDF soldiers, tanks, artillery and fighter aircraft continue to maintain a high level of defensive readiness and operate constantly to eliminate the threat.”

On the other hand, in the midst of growing tension in the region, this Sunday the Iranian regime launched a new threat to Israel for its military response to the Hamas attacks.
“The crimes of the Zionist regime have crossed red lines, which may force the entire world to take action. Washington asks us to do nothing, but continues to give broad support to Israel. “The US sent messages to the Axis of the Resistance but received a clear response on the battlefield,” Persian President Ebrahim Raisi expressed on his social network accountwho, in an unusual event, published the message in English.
