In depth

According to Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, as reported by Ynet and Channel 13 News, Hezbollah conveyed a message that it will not intervene in the confrontation between the US and Iran. According to Channel 13 News, the commitment was conveyed to the President of Lebanon. According to Behadrei Haredim, the commitment was conveyed to the Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament, and a senior Iranian official clarified that Tehran is capable of confronting an American attack on its own.

According to Israel Hayom, Iran made clear to Hezbollah that it does not want its participation in a future confrontation. According to the report, sources close to Hezbollah conveyed this to the Saudi channel Al-Arabiya. In Beirut, there is doubt that the organization will honor its commitments, and Behadrei Haredim reported that a similar promise was already breached in March.

According to Behadrei Haredim, Hezbollah is fortifying its positions out of fear of a ground maneuver by the IDF, but is losing the support of the Shiite street. At the same time, according to the same outlet, the authorities in Beirut are refusing to return a truck of confiscated explosives.
