The confrontations in northern occupied Palestine between Hezbollah and the Israeli occupation forces are proving painful for the settlers of the north, Israeli KAN public broadcaster correspondent Han Biar said on Tuesday.

Life is reportedly becoming more and more difficult due to the evacuations they must oblige with due to the extensive damages dealt to their homes, the Israeli journalist claimed.

This comes after two houses were damaged in the Israeli settlement of "Bar'am" in northern occupied Palestine, with numerous others suffering from damages in the settlement of "Metula".

Israelis seeing their homes sustaining damages is very difficult for them, Biar said, adding that it was especially hard that Hezbollah was in control of the situation in the north.

The head of the Council of the Israeli settlement of "Metula", David Azoulai, affirmed on Saturday evening that all Israeli civilian infrastructure in the Israeli settlements located within a 4-kilometer distance from the borders with Lebanon is out of service due to the continued targeting by Hezbollah. (The settlement is situated in the eastern sector of southern Lebanon at the Lebanese-Palestinian borders).

Israeli media said earlier on Tuesday that Hezbollah's missiles, which have Israeli sites and settlements in the crosshairs, have grown increasingly advanced and dangerous.

Israeli Channel 13 correspondent, Shlomi Eldar, said settlements such as "Metulla, Shtula, Kiryat Shmona, and others adjacent to the border with Lebanon are within the range of Hezbollah's missiles all the time."

"Hezbollah is present near the border and has stepped up its anti-tank missile attacks," adding that the attacks against Israeli sites have become "more accurate and dangerous."

Referring to yesterday's operations in which Hezbollah targeted 15 sites in "Metulla" using anti-tank missiles, the Israeli correspondent explained that Hezbollah's missiles have become a significant threat because Israeli alarm systems are not effective at detecting them.

In the same context, the correspondent of Kan in northern occupied Palestine noted that Hezbollah targeted "Metulla" yesterday to maintain the deterrence equation it declared earlier: a civilian for a civilian.

Therefore, its retaliation in "Metula" "came after the killing of the mayor of one of the Lebanese villages [Taybeh] after its shelling by Israeli occupation forces."

The Deputy Security Chief in "Metulla" said that what's happening in the North during the confrontations with Hezbollah is unprecedented, not even in the 2006 July War.
