MESA for Israel
The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon Hezbollah announced on Saturday July 2 that it had "launched 3 unarmed drones in the direction of the disputed area" at the Karish field, on reconnaissance missions, stressing that "the drones accomplished the required mission and delivered the message."
The Islamic Resistance said, in a statement, that "the group of martyrs Jamil Skaf and Mahdi Yaghi launched 3 unarmed drones," adding that the drones were of various sizes, and were launched "in the direction of the disputed area at the Karish field.
For its part, Israeli media reported that the Israeli occupation forces "interrupted 3 Hezbollah drones, which were heading towards the Karish gas platform."
Hezbollah had confirmed its readiness to take measures, including force, against Israeli gas drilling operations in the disputed offshore areas.
Commenting on this, Israeli media announced that "Hezbollah's launch of unarmed drones towards Karish is a hint that it does not want a military confrontation now," but "this is an indication that it is capable of otherwise, and it may be repeated in the coming weeks."
Meanwhile, the Israeli "Channel 13" pointed out that: "When Hezbollah decides so, it will launch armed drones or missiles towards the gas platforms."
It is noteworthy that the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, confirmed, on June 9, that "Lebanon is facing a new stage, with the installation of a platform in the Karish gas field within a period of 3 months by the British-Greek company, which constitutes an attack on Lebanon.”
Sayyed Nasrallah clarified that "all the measures of the Israeli enemy cannot protect the floating platform, nor the process of extracting gas from the Karish field," stressing that "any folly that the enemy commits will have repercussions, not only strategic, but existential.”
Patriotic Lebanese stood behind the resistance in this new operation, simply because they knew that had it not been for the resistance, its position and capabilities, Lebanon would not have reached such a fortified and rigid position of peer to peer, to negotiate with a strong enemy supported by the United States in this indirect negotiation on the demarcation of the maritime borders.
