In light of the groundbreaking political, security, military, and intelligence failure that was evidenced by Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, "Israel" today is subject to an "unprecedented existential threat," Israeli media reported. 

"Hezbollah has placed all its combat forces on high alert," Israeli media reported following the meeting between the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and the Iranian Foreign Minister, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian. 

Hezbollah's preparedness is at its peak in anticipation of a confrontation in the north, Israeli media reported.

Israeli media reported that the break-out of an all-out war could lead to a dramatic shift in the balance of power in the Middle East, adding that the "tragedy" of October 7 has plunged "Israel" into a deep crisis.

The Israeli media cited The Guardian and The Wall Street Journal newspapers, which alleged that Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was planned and coordinated between the leaders of Hamas, Hezbollah, and the IRGC.

They emphasized that the strategic attack has so far inflicted a severe military defeat on "Israel" and undermined the US-sponsored normalization deal with Saudi Arabia, which was aimed at reshaping the Middle East.

Similarly, the Israeli newspaper Maariv emphasized that "Israel" is now subject to an existential security crisis, where political, military, and security red lines have been crossed, noting that what has happened so far is just a warning of what might yet come.

The Israeli media confirmed that the most pressing danger is a war with Hezbollah in the north possibly breaking out, in addition to operation from the West Bank and al-Quds.

Earlier, Hezbollah Secretary-General, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, received  Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and an accompanying delegation to discuss the latest regional developments, especially the ongoing Operation Al-Aqsa Flood and the brutal Israeli aggression on Gaza.

The continued Israeli occupation attacks on al-Aqsa and its crimes in the occupied West Bank were also among the meeting's main topics.

Moreover, consultations took place regarding the possible outcomes of the current events and the responsibilities every party should bear, as well as the positions that should be taken vis-à-vis these historic events and serious developments.
