New Force Begins Rapid Mobilization Against Israel – Things Could Soon Get Much Worse

The Iranian-backed terrorist group 🏴Hezbollah — located on 🇮🇱Israel’s northern border in Lebanon and Syria — reportedly is mobilizing ground forces potentially to join in the fight against the Jewish State.
The 🇮🇱Israel War Room account on X posted, “Local journalist in Quneitra reports that 🏴Hezbollah’s Radwan Brigade is mobilizing along the Syrian border with 🇮🇱Israel.”
Quneitra is a region in Syria, near the Israeli border.
🏴Hezbollahfired dozens of rockets and shells on Sunday at three Israeli positions in a disputed area along the country’s border with northern 🇮🇱Israel in the Golan Heights.
🏴Hezbollah said in a statement that the attack using “large numbers of rockets and shells” was in solidarity with the “Palestinian resistance.”
🇮🇱Israel’s military fired back at the Lebanese areas, but there was no immediate word on casualties.
The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that Iranian security officials helped plan Saturday’s surprise attack by 🏴Hamas in southern 🇮🇱Israel, according to senior members of 🏴Hamas and 🏴Hezbollah.
Further, 🇮🇷Iran gave the green light last week for the attack to go forward.
“Details of the operation were refined during several meetings in Beirut attended by officers and representatives of four 🇮🇷Iran-backed militant groups, including 🏴Hamas, which holds power in Gaza, and 🏴Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group and political faction in Lebanon, they said,” according to the Journal.
A representative for 🇮🇷Iran’s mission to the United Nations denied the Islamic Republic directed the attacks.
“The decisions made by the Palestinian resistance are fiercely autonomous and unwaveringly aligned with the legitimate interests of the Palestinian people,” the representative said. “We are not involved in Palestine’s response, as it is taken solely by Palestine itself.”
If 🇮🇷Iran had a direct role in directing the 🏴Hamas attack, and in fact met in Lebanon with leaders from both 🏴Hamas and 🏴Hezbollah, it would seem reasonable, it may be playing a role in actions being taken by 🏴Hezbollah.
“A direct Iranian role would take Tehran’s long-running conflict with 🇮🇱Israel out of the shadows, raising the risk of broader conflict in the Middle East. Senior Israeli security officials have pledged to strike at 🇮🇷Iran’s leadership if Tehran is found responsible for killing Israelis,” the Journal said.
Ali Barakeh, a senior 🏴Hamas official, said Monday only a small number of 🏴Hamas commanders knew about Saturday’s strike against 🇮🇱Israel, but Iran and 🏴Hezbollah “will join the battle if Gaza is subjected to a war of annihilation,” The Associated Press reported.
Barakeh told the AP in his office located in Beirut that Iranian officials did not help plan the attack, nor give the green light for it to go forward.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahupledged Saturday the “The enemy will pay an unprecedented price” for the attack.
If reports of 🏴Hezbollah mobilizing are true, 🇮🇱Israel may soon have a two-front war on its hands, which would not be the first time.
