The Jewish Chronicle • • world
Key Points:
- Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officers have been stationed in Lebanon to restore Hezbollah’s operational capabilities and oversee missile unit activities, including planning attacks on Israel.
- Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) targeted senior Hezbollah missile unit members in the Bekaa region, killing at least eight operatives, including a senior field commander, in one of the deadliest strikes since the 2024 ceasefire.
- Hezbollah’s missile arsenal, backed by Iran, is central to its deterrent and offensive capabilities against Israel, with ongoing Israeli strikes aimed at preventing rearmament and entrenchment that violate the ceasefire.
- The IDF affirmed its commitment to the ceasefire but warned it will act decisively against Hezbollah’s efforts to rebuild its military capabilities
