The leader of the terrorist group Hezbollah has hinted that there could be more tunnels at the border that would not have been discovered

The head of the Lebanese Shiite terrorist group Hezbollah, Sheik Hbadan Nasrallah, he rejected the Israeli operation aimed at discovering and destroying the cross-border tunnels dug by his organization, saying that this indicated a failure of Israeli military intelligence and badured that his group was planning to invade Galilee they remain intact.

After months of silence, Nasrallah spoke for the first time since the beginning of the "Northern Shield" operation launched by Israel in early December, with the aim of destroying tunnels dug under its border.

During an interview granted to the Lebanese pro-Hezbollah channel MayadeenNasrallah claimed that "some tunnels date from before the 1701 resolution and the second Lebanon war. "

UN Resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 conflagration, urges Lebanese armed groups to remain north of the Litani River. Israel stresses that Hezbollah has violated the resolution by developing military activities along the border.

"The Israelis have discovered several tunnels after many years, and this is not a surprise.The surprise is that these tunnels took so long to find them," Nasrallah joked in an interview.

"One of the tunnels discovered in recent weeks is thirteen or fourteen years old", Nasrallah argued. The Israeli operation reveals "the failure" of the country's intelligence services, he explained.

Nasrallah added that the tunnels they are not the central part of Hezbollah's plan of attack in a future war, and Israeli leaders have exaggerated its importance to "give it a significant success" of which it could boast.

Nasralla confirmed that "our plan for the coming war is to enter Galilee, a part of our plan of which we are capable, God willing. The important thing is that we have the capacity and we have it for years. ".

"The discovery of the tunnels does not affect our plan to conquer Galilee to ten percent. If we decide to do it, even if they destroy the tunnels, can not we rebuild them? "

The Hezbollah leader has hinted that many more attack tunnels under the Israeli-Lebanese border dug by his group have yet to be discovered.

"To enter Galilee, you do not need tunnels," he said. "Yes, tunnels can be a help factor to enter Galilee, in a limited and partial way. But an operation of this degree, if decided one day, would require all frontiers, valleys, and hills. "

The leader of the terrorist group added that "in any war that occurs, all occupied Palestine will be at war and will be a battlefield".

Hezbollah launched the 2006 war with Israel through a border attack. This time, Nasrallah says he will launch a confrontation only in response to an Israeli attack and will not initiate it on his side.

"If the Israeli enemy bombs targets on Lebanese land, begins a security operation on Lebanese lands, commits murder on Lebanese lands … kills someone from Hezbollah in Syria …" We will consider this an attack and we will react, "he threatened.

"We have the capacity and the plans despite all the obstacles Israel is trying to create," he said. In addition, he badured that his organization had "enough missiles to achieve our goals in any future war".

Israel said Hezbollah had a small number of precision-guided missiles and tries to get them to use them in a future war, a threat that the Jewish state is determined to prevent.

Nasrallah argued that the interest of the Israeli people is "to tell Netanyahu to allow Hezbollah to have precision missiles, so it is better because if the day comes we will respond to Tel Aviv, if I'll have a precision missile, I'll attack But if I do not have precision missiles and want to attack a military site, I'll miss 500 or 1,000 meters, where was he landed on people … the interest of people is that we have precision missiles. "

When asked if this comment was a joke or a threat, he replied, "That's what you want."

In response to the interview, Israeli Defense Forces Arab Spokesman Avichay Adraee wrote on Twitter that Nasrallah is "isolated on all sides".

"Lebanese citizens know that you are not defending Lebanon, but destroying it," said Adraee.
