Hezbollah has reportedly restored its military capabilities, launching over 100 rockets at northern Israel, particularly targeting Haifa. The ongoing conflict has resulted in significant humanitarian crises in both Lebanon and Gaza, with thousands displaced and casualties rising. International reactions call for urgent humanitarian aid and ceasefires.


Hezbollah's Military Capabilities on the Rise

In a recent analysis, military expert Colonel Hatem Karim Al-Falahi highlighted that Hezbollah has successfully restored its combat and missile capabilities, evidenced by a significant missile barrage targeting northern Israel, particularly the city of Haifa. The Israeli military reported that over 100 rockets were launched from southern Lebanon, marking a notable escalation in attacks compared to previous periods. Al-Falahi emphasized that the strategic targeting of Haifa and nearby regions indicates a shift towards more impactful military operations, affecting both civilian and economic targets. This change suggests a well-coordinated command and control structure within Hezbollah, allowing for simultaneous attacks on multiple locations.

Ongoing Conflict and Humanitarian Crisis

The ongoing conflict has resulted in severe humanitarian consequences, with reports indicating that around 20% of Lebanon's population has been displaced. The World Food Programme has raised alarms over food shortages, stating that approximately one million people in Lebanon require urgent assistance due to the destruction of agricultural lands from Israeli bombings. Meanwhile, the WHO warns of potential disease outbreaks due to overcrowding in shelters and the closure of hospitals. The situation in Gaza is equally dire, with nearly 42,000 deaths reported since the escalation of hostilities.

International Reactions and Future Implications

As tensions escalate, Hezbollah's deputy Naim Qasem has insisted that the group's military capabilities remain intact, dismissing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's claims of restoring security to northern Israel as an illusion. The Israeli military has responded by increasing troop deployments and launching targeted operations against Hezbollah. The international community, including the EU and the UN, has expressed deep concerns over the humanitarian situation, urging for immediate ceasefires and increased humanitarian aid. The conflict's trajectory suggests a potential for further escalation, with both sides preparing for continued military engagements.
