Hezbollah attacks growing deadlier by the day: Israeli official
Hezbollah is pacing up its operations on the Northern Front, as these attacks become deadlier and more powerful, the head of the Israeli Upper al-Jalil Council, Giora Zaltz, stated on Saturday.
Zaltz, who heads the local authority governing a large section of northern Israeli-occupied territories, said that these areas are becoming increasingly less secure.
The official criticized the central Israeli government, headed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for its policies in the north during an interview for the Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (KAN).
"Netanyahu's government discovered, in the past weeks, that there is an enemy in the northern borders called Hezbollah and it awaits [Hezbollah's] response to the assassination of commander (Fouad) Shokor in the Southern Suburb of Beirut," Zaltz explained.
He stressed that the situation in the north is deteriorating from "bad to worse," as daily warning sirens sound across the northern occupied territories due to Hezbollah's drone and rocket attacks.
The Israeli official revealed that dozens of settlers' housing units have been destroyed, vast areas have been burnt, and dozens of casualties have been recorded among Israeli soldiers and settlers.
In addition to the material and human losses suffered by the Israeli occupation, Zaltz pointed to the completely dysfunctional healthcare, banking, and educational sectors in the north. Zaltz reiterated his calls for a radical change in the Israeli government's strategy in the north that would allow evacuated settlers to return to their colonial outposts.
