In a sensational revelation, Lebanon’s Hezbollah, on the explosive day of Saturday, October 14, launched a fiery attack on no less than five Israeli outposts in the hotly disputed Shebaa Farms, right at the heart of the Lebanese-Israeli border. Employing a deadly arsenal of guided missiles and mortar shells, the group publicly acknowledged this daring aggression, revealing the time to be precisely 3:15 p.m. Tensions in Shebaa Farms have hit boiling point!

But wait, there’s more! Just a day before this explosive attack, the Iranian-backed Hezbollah, famed for its formidable weaponry, issued a chilling warning to Israel. It declared, in no uncertain terms, its readiness to ally with the militant group Hamas and dive headfirst into the fray. Hezbollah’s deputy chief, Naim Qassem, in a charged atmosphere at a pro-Palestinian rally in Beirut, declared, “We are fully prepared, and when the time comes for action, we will take it.” Amidst the high-stakes geopolitical game, the Iranian foreign minister made his presence felt in Beirut, turning down calls for Hezbollah’s restraint.

But the Shebaa Farms incident wasn’t the only flashpoint. In another heart-wrenching episode on Saturday, Lebanon pointed a direct finger at the Israeli army for a missile strike that tragically snuffed out the life of one journalist and left nearly six others injured. Israel, not staying silent on the matter, stated its intention to probe into the fatal attack’s circumstances. The fallen Reuters video journalist, Issam Abdallah, received a posthumous acknowledgment, with military spokesman Richard Hecht expressing remorse over the tragic incident.

Lebanon’s response? The Lebanese army minced no words in calling out Israel for its actions, stating that a rocket from the “Israeli enemy” led to the tragic demise of Abdallah. The Lebanese foreign ministry went a step further, slamming the attack as a “deliberate killing” and a stark “crime against freedom of speech and journalism”.

With missiles flying and threats escalating, the Lebanese-Israeli border is becoming a powder keg, ready to blow! Stay tuned as we delve deeper into the unfolding drama at Shebaa Farms.
