Israeli media reported today that the settlers in the occupied North "lost their minds" after the speech of the Minister of Security of the Israeli occupation, Yoav Galant regarding the northern front.

Channel 12's correspondent in the North, Gary Faron, stated that Galant announced that Hezbollah raised half a notch of its operations against "Israel" while the latter raised a notch in its operations but is still first level out of 10.

Faron added that the settlers in the occupied North heard that and lost their minds wondering how after 130 days of daily fighting, rockets, injuries, and deaths in the North, the Israeli occupation forces and "Israel" are only at the first level out of 10.

He wondered, “What should happen, and how much time must pass for them to rise to the occasion and address the security problem on the northern border?” 

Earlier today, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz confirmed that Hezbollah succeeded in imposing a kind of "security belt" in northern occupied Palestine, as the settlements there have become deserted.

Yesterday, the Israeli Channel 12 indicated that Hezbollah possesses between 150 and 200 thousand missiles, with an average launching capacity of 1,500 missiles per day. Among these missiles are heavy short-range Burkan missiles with a warhead weighing almost half a ton, Grad rockets which have a range of  20 km, and others such as the Fajr 3 and 5 missiles, which have a range of 100 km or more.

The mayor of the "Metula" settlement, David Azoulay, had confirmed, a few days ago, that Hezbollah is who dictates the level of flames at all times in the north stressing that throughout the last four months, it has been the one opening fire and doing whatever it wants while what the IOF is doing is not what Israelis have expected.

Israeli media: Hezbollah holds the occupied North as 'hostage'

Israeli media reported on Sunday that Hezbollah's military policy along the Lebanese-Palestinian border is "holding settlers in the occupied North as hostages". 

Moran Aluf, an Israeli researcher, told the Israeli Kan channel that "Israel" has captives in the South and "hostages in the North", where settlers cannot return to their houses or live normally as a result of Hezbollah's retaliation. 

"We ['Israel'] cannot allow an organization like Hezbollah to take settlers as its hostages," she added, noting that "Hezbollah created an equation, dictating that as long as fighting in Gaza is ongoing, then I [Hezbollah] will continue firing."

She also clarified that if any agreement is reached, it would only be temporary, adding that there is a possibility of war against the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon "because we cannot anticipate what it wants or what its intentions are. We must understand its capabilities to avoid what happened in the South."

Aluf additionally described the threat Hezbollah poses on the northern settlements as a "security challenge" that would subside the political agreement if not handled.
