Hezbollah Reportedly Prepares Tehran-Controlled Escalation Against Northern Israel

Lebanese political sources said Wednesday that Hezbollah has prepared a military escalation plan shifting intensive fire toward civilian communities in northern Israel. The reported preparations include secretly stockpiling food and military equipment at hideouts north of the Litani River. The sources said Hezbollah is awaiting explicit approval from Tehran, which is using the Iranian proxy as leverage during negotiations with Washington. The reports said the terrorist organization has remained relatively quiet during Israel-Lebanon talks in Rome but is positioned for renewed action if Iran decides to activate it.
