The Israeli security and military command should listen carefully to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's speech on Friday, Yossi Amrosi, a former senior official for the Israeli security agency Shin Bet told Israeli Channel 13.

Amrosi urged officials to carefully assess and analyze the long-anticipated speech of Hezbollah's Secretary-General, Sayyed Nasrallah, who is scheduled to break his silence at 3:00 PM (EET) on Friday.

The Secretary-General has not made a public appearance or put out a statement regarding the unfolding events in the Gaza Strip. A short 12-second video showing Sayyed Nasrallah walking past a poster of Hezbollah's flag put Israeli media into a frenzy, as commentators rushed to analyze the footage.

"Nasrallah is hinting that he is in the picture... wait and see what's coming," Yaron Schneider, Israeli Channel 12 commentator on Arab affairs, suggested.

The Israeli Ynet news website posted the video captioning it as "Hezbollah's Psychological War... Nasrallah's Mysterious Message in a New Documentation."

Everyone on standby for Sayyed Nasrallah's speech

Israeli Channel 13 also reported that tensions have been high near the Palestinian-Lebanese border for the past 24 hours, adding that everyone is on standby awaiting Sayyed Nasrallah's address.

In this context, Alon Ben David, Channel 13's military affairs expert said that the expected speech has made Israelis extremely worried. Channel 12 said that people in the Middle East are holding their breath in anticipation of the speech.

White House National Security Council spokesperson, John Kirby, said that the White House administration will be paying "close attention" to the speech,

The Resistance leader's speech will come during a ceremony honoring martyrs "on the road to al-Quds." Hezbollah continues to engage Israeli occupation forces all along the Lebanese-Palestinian border, in a show of support to the Resistance in Gaza.

The Resistance faction is yet to unleash its full force against the Israeli occupation, as the scope of engagement gradually grows every day. Sayyed Nasrallah's words on Friday are anticipated to resonate deeply across the region, as the steadfast commitments of the Resistance leader have consistently materialized into reality.
