Israeli officials have admitted that the Lebanese resistance, Hezbollah, has succeeded in emptying the settlements in northern occupied Palestine without the use of any force.

According to the officials, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) commander of the northern region has received instructions not to escalate confrontations with the Lebanese resistance.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that several heavy missiles were launched from Lebanon in the late hours of Friday, hitting at least five Israeli occupation military sites, including barracks and gathering, in the occupied Western al-Jalil in Palestine in less than two hours.

Gershon Hacohen, a general in the IOF told Israeli Channel 12 that Hezbollah succeeded through a "simple effort" of firing a few missiles and drones a day in preventing Israeli settlers from returning to their "homes."

He also explained that Hezbollah has succeeded in keeping the confrontations at the border from turning into a full-blown war, explaining that the IOF commander in the north of occupied Palestine understood from the start that "Israel" was on the defensive and was required not to escalate in any way that would provoke a full-blown war.

A former Shin Bet official Dvir Karev told Israeli Channel 13 that "Israel" is currently in its third war with Lebanon, and that Hezbollah has much more power than Hamas, both in weapons and in force.

He questioned whether the IOF's power could be sufficient against Hezbollah and expressed hope that the confrontations would remain at a low level, acknowledging the many Israeli casualties.

As for the Chairman of the Israeli pilots union, Meidan Barr, he pointed out that there was a "developed military industry in the Middle East," adding  “Who would have believed that they would develop missiles in Gaza and the West Bank?"

'Israel' is deterred, not Hezbollah: Former 'Kiryat Shmona' Mayor

The former Mayor of the Israeli "Kiryat Shmona" settlement warned on Tuesday that Hezbollah is not the deterred party, but rather it is "Israel."

Talking to Israeli Channel 12, Prosfer Azran criticized the Israeli government's performance regarding the situation on the northern border, expressing doubt in the entity's leadership in stopping the Resistance in Lebanon and diminishing its threats.

Israeli media pointed out on Tuesday that the occupation entity is witnessing an unprecedented period and that the situation on the northern front is "extremely dangerous" and the internal front is under imminent threat.

Further shedding light on the deteriorating situation on the Lebanese-Palestinian borders, Israeli reports stated last week that Hezbollah has "established a security zone several kilometers inside "Israel" using its military capabilities and through its operations against the Israeli occupation."

The Resistance's operations resulted in the evacuation of tens of thousands of Israelis from northern occupied Palestine, which also resulted in the halting of their businesses, which primarily serve as the entity's main poultry and agricultural production regions, subsequently impacting the entire entity's economy and food security.

Additionally, the occupation government was forced to provide monthly payments to fleeing settlers, putting more pressure on the already stagnated economy.

Addressing the potential financial and social costs on the entity, Israeli media reported on Tuesday that the occupation entity suffered a rise in food prices this year due to increased shipping costs, attributed to the growing Yemeni operations, concerns over maritime routes in the Red Sea, and Hezbollah's operations.

However, these prices would soar even higher in the case that a war with Hezbollah would start, the outlet said.
