In a marked escalation of the Middle East conflict, Hezbollah has redeployed its elite fighters to confront Israeli forces in southern Lebanon. Sources reveal that these fighters, part of Hezbollah's Radwan force, have been ordered to impede Israeli military advances following a surprise attack on Tehran.

This significant move follows the group's involvement in the conflict on Monday, where Hezbollah launched attacks to avenge Iran's supreme leader's death. Israeli forces have intensified strikes in southern Lebanon, urging Lebanese civilians to evacuate the border region.

Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem has vowed resistance against Israeli plans of occupation, describing the action as existential defense. As tensions surge, Lebanon and Israel remain on the brink of further confrontations, with military movements and warnings of impending violence escalating in the region.
