A spokesperson for the Hamas movement in Lebanon, Abdul Majeed Awad, stated on Tuesday that the end goal of the Axis of Resistance is to erase the Israeli occupation and push it toward its demise. 

Talking to The Financial Times, Awad, the political and media relations officer of Hamas in Lebanon, said: "The Axis of Resistance ... aims to annihilate and wipe out Israel from existence".

Awad denied the resistance's allies were informed or aware of the operation ahead of time, adding that Iran and Hezbollah were "following up on every step."

This comes amid an announcement by the Lebanese army that border areas in the south were bombarded by the Israeli entity, with several mortar shells falling in the yard of one of the army's bases, resulting in minor injuries to a Lebanese officer.

Israeli media reported on Monday evening that four fighters attempted to infiltrate the settlement of "Arab Al-Aramshe", which is adjacent to the Lebanese village of al-Dhayra. The group confronted an Israeli occupation force while explosions and gunfire could be heard in towns nearby.

So far, the White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby announced that there is no hard evidence pointing to Iran's involvement in Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

"We haven't seen hard, tangible evidence that Iran was directly involved in participating in or resourcing, planning, these sorts of complex attacks that Hamas pulled off over the weekend," he said on Monday.

This statement comes in light of a report by the Wall Street Journal claiming that Iran plays a role in  Hamas' Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, but Kirby stated that the US is currently looking further into it.

However, Iran warned that any "foolish" Israeli attack against Iran would be faced with a "destructive” response from Tehran while addressing Israeli officials by saying: "If you can, defend yourself in front of the Palestinian Resistance."
