Hezbollah threatens Israel with more attacks if it continues attacks in Lebanon

Hezbollah has threatened Israel with more attacks if it continues attacks in Lebanon.

In a statement, Hezbollah declared that "the resistance promises the enemy" that the attack "south of Haifa was only a warning of what awaits if Israel decides to continue its attacks against our people."

The attack on the Binyamina military base was the deadliest in Israel since the start of Israeli military operations in Lebanon on September 23.

The drone, according to the IDF, is an Iranian-made Mirsad 1. Hezbollah has hundreds of such drones in its arsenal, and Israel has already captured dozens in the past 15 days.

The Mirsad 1s reach a speed of close to 200 kilometers just before impact and carry warheads with 20 kilograms of explosives. Investigations by Israeli army special forces into the incident continue, while the base has been evacuated except for the injured and civilian personnel.
