A former chief commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has warned Israel of “tough days” as the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah restores its combat power to counter Israeli aggression.

“After witnessing a wave of assassinations, Hezbollah has repaired its combat organization,” Major General Mohsen Rezaei, who is currently a member of Iran’s Expediency Council, wrote in an X post on Monday.

“Now the war mode of Hezbollah has started operating and [thus] tough days await the Zionists.”

Israel has been carrying out bloody acts of terror and aggression across Lebanon after the occupying regime unleashed its genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.

At least 2,306 people have been killed and 10,698 others injured in Israeli attacks on Lebanon since early October 2023, according to the country’s health ministry.

Last month, the criminal regime assassinated Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, in an airstrike on southern Beirut.

Hezbollah warns of more retaliation if Israeli aggression against Lebanon continues

The Hezbollah resistance movement warns of more retaliatory strikes against Israel if the regime pushes ahead with its deadly bombing campaign on Lebanon.

Since then, Hezbollah has increased its retaliatory strikes against Israeli targets and vowed to continue its fight in support of Gaza and Palestine, and in defense of Lebanon.

On Sunday, the resistance group fired a swarm of attack drones on an Israeli military base in Binyamina, south of Haifa, killing four occupation soldiers and injuring 58 others.
