Nasrallah published clips about his plan. They believed in themselves and that it was real. And we underestimated the enemy and his ability to carry out his threats.

We must not confuse the sense of capability, at the individual level and at the unit level, with underestimation. We do not underestimate the enemy.

I believe, as a senior commander in the army, that we failed in the field of drones. The enemy learned faster than us and surprised us. And now, we are all reviewing our performance, including within the brigade, and learning how to deal with this matter.

These measures helped create a state of deterrence and prevented the enemy from daring to enter the country's borders, and our units remain deployed to confront any possible scenario.

The Israeli army and Shin Bet assassinated in the Khan Younis area in the southern Gaza Strip earlier this week (Wednesday), killing Muhammad Shalouf, a company commander in the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement. Shalouf infiltrated Israeli territory in the October 7 attack. In another assassination yesterday (Friday), the Israeli army and Shin Bet assassinated in the Khan Younis area, killing Musa Atef Musa Abu Dan, a member of the elite unit of the Hamas movement. Both had recently sought to carry out military operations against Israeli army forces and Israeli citizens, and worked to rebuild the capabilities of the Hamas movement, while systematically violating the ceasefire. They were targeted by air to remove the threat they posed.

It would be better for American officials to read another important part of history as well: when the Roman emperor knelt before Shapur I the Sasanian. And whoever invokes history must also be prepared to repeat it

The Lebanese Army, composed of 80,000 soldiers, is not incapable at all, and the explosives have cornered the military and political leaderships; they are buying time while the party arms itself.
جورج عقيصنائب في مجلس النواب اللبناني10 days ago · MTV Lebanon
The entry of prohibited explosives and their carrying without government decisions is a criminal offense, and we have become accustomed since 2008 that Hezbollah is involved in assassinations. To the state I say: 'Take the decisions now, otherwise it will be very difficult to take them later.'
