Hezbollah was on high alert on Sunday, according to two security sources, as tensions escalated following an attack on the occupied Golan Heights that Israel attributed to the Lebanese armed group.
Hezbollah has denied responsibility for the attack.
The security sources reported that Hezbollah preemptively cleared some key sites in southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley, preparing for a potential Israeli attack.
The attack on the Golan Heights has further strained the already tense relationship between Israel and Hezbollah. The Israeli government holds Hezbollah accountable, despite the group’s denial, leading to increased military readiness on both sides.
This development follows a series of recent clashes and incidents that have exacerbated the volatile situation in the region. The Israeli Defense Forces have been on high alert, conducting reconnaissance and preparing for any potential escalation. In response, Hezbollah’s actions to clear strategic locations indicate their preparation for an Israeli military response.
