Israeli media confirmed, on Friday, that the Israeli Security Services, members of the cabinet, and the Israeli Military Intelligence Division all listened with interest to the speech of the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, in honor of the martyrs who embraced martyrdom on the path to Al-Quds.

According to the Israeli Channel 13 anchor, “Israel does not know what Nasrallah is planning, and we cannot rely on our intelligence services, especially after the intelligence failure of last October 7, and because its (intelligence) information is not always accurate."

The broadcaster stressed that Sayyed Nasrallah's speech "puts Israel in a state of alert and may be an attempt to hypnotize us."

Michael Hauser Tov, an Israeli political analyst for Haaretz, pointed out that "the mere fact that all of Israel sat in front of the television today, Friday, to listen to Nasrallah’s speech is in itself a victory and an important dimension in the ongoing psychological warfare."

The analyst then added that Netanyahu's speech in conjunction with Nasrallah's speech was necessary, adding that its goal was to make sure that the media and the world do not only talk about Nasrallah but also about Netanyahu.

Moreover, Israeli media pointed out that Hezbollah's official and clear equation is to act in a "well-studied manner and gradually escalate, but it [Hezbollah] will do everything so that Hamas does not fall."

During the speech of the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, the Israeli media said that the real fear in the Israeli security establishment is that “Nasrallah will vow to undertake specific operations.”

According to Israeli media, "Nasrallah's stakes are high against the backdrop of greater escalation in the war on Gaza."

The Israeli media highlighted that in his speech, Nasrallah sent out messages that Operation Al-Aqsa Flood had expanded to encompass more than one front, stressing that "the elimination of Hamas is an unattainable goal."

Israeli Channel 12 also focused on the point that Nasrallah highlighted regarding the decision to launch Operation Al-Aqsa Flood being "100% Palestinian" and stressing that "everyone who says otherwise is hypocritical."

"Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was 100% a Palestinian decision, and its execution was 100% Palestinian. Its initiators kept it concealed from everyone, even from other Palestinian factions and Resistance movements, which they did not mind."

The Resistance leader confirmed that "Operation Al-Aqsa Flood and the fact that no one knew about it is clear proof that this battle is entirely Palestinian and initiated for the sake of the people of Palestine and their cause and has nothing to do with any regional or international file."

"This battle is beyond reproach," Sayyed Nasrallah added, stressing that it is "one of the clearest and purest examples of fighting in the path upheld for the sake of God."

According to Hezbollah leader, "The unfolding events in Al-Aqsa Flood are clear proof that Iran does not have any mandate at all over the Resistance factions" and "the real decision-makers are the leaders of the Resistance and its freedom fighters."
