A prominent Hezbollah official threatened Israel that, if the IDF renews its strikes in Beirut, the terror organization would launch retaliatory fire towards central Israeli cities such as Haifa and Tel Aviv.
In an interview with Qatari outlet Al Araby, the deputy head of Hezbollah's political council, Mahmoud Kamati, stated that "The equation of Dahiyeh against settlements in the north cannot be accepted in any way."
"It is not possible for the firing towards the north to stop in exchange for Dahiyeh not being attacked," he added. "From the start, the campaign is in full swing, and the horizon is open."
Instead, Kamati threatened, the "equation" would be between Dahiyeh and Beirut on the one side, and Haifa and Tel Aviv on the other.
Houthis threaten Israel if it remains in Lebanon
Meanwhile, the Yemeni Houthi terror group has also threatened retaliation against Israel if it should continue to attack in Lebanon.
In a post on X/Twitter, Mohammed Alfrah, a member of the Houthi's Political Bureau, said that Israel "must realize that any breach will be met with a response and that its soldiers in the south will remain vulnerable to daily killing until the withdrawal."
"What most whetted the appetite of the Israeli enemy is the 15-month period during which it was bombing Lebanon without response, and it is the period of negotiations with the Lebanese authority," Alfrah declared.
