Hezbollah's Military Capabilities Challenge Israel's Defense Strategies

Lebanese military expert Brigadier General Ali Abi Raad has highlighted the significant challenges posed by Hezbollah's advanced drone technology to the Israeli military. According to Abi Raad, the Iranian-made drones, such as the Shahed 36 and Arash 2, are particularly difficult to detect due to their low heat emissions and ability to fly at low altitudes. This technological advantage allows them to evade Israeli air defense systems, making interception a complex issue.

Abi Raad emphasized that while the Israeli military may be able to spot these drones upon entry into their airspace, their low flight patterns and high speeds—up to 480 kilometers per hour—make them nearly impossible to track and intercept effectively. Furthermore, he expressed skepticism regarding Israeli claims of developing a laser weapon to counter these drones, suggesting that such technology may not be ready until 2027.

New Leadership in Hezbollah: A Commitment to Ongoing Conflict

In a parallel development, Hezbollah's new leader, Naim Qassem, has pledged to continue the militant group's longstanding

action plan

which was initiated by his predecessor, Hassan Nasrallah. Following Nasrallah's death, Qassem stated that Hezbollah remains committed to protecting Lebanon and supporting Palestinian causes against Israeli aggression. He condemned the international community's silence over the casualties in Gaza, asserting that the group would not surrender despite the ongoing conflict.

Qassem's statements come amid continued Israeli military operations in Lebanon, which he claims have not deterred Hezbollah's resolve. He noted that the militia is recovering from previous losses and is prepared for a prolonged conflict with Israel, indicating that they have the necessary experience and resources to sustain their efforts for months. He also expressed openness to support from any Arab nation in their fight against perceived Israeli and American domination.

These developments illustrate the escalating tensions in the region, with both Hezbollah's military capabilities and its leadership's resolve posing significant challenges to Israel's strategic military planning.
