One week left: Israel issues stern ultimatum to Hezbollah

Reports from Lebanon give new details about US envoy Amos Hochstein's visit to Beirut, specifying the 26th of June as the date when Israel will lose its patience regarding the growing tensions in the north.

According to the reports, Hezbollah told Hochstein that threats would not work. If Israel wants to start a war, bring it on. They also said that Hezbollah only attacks military targets while Israel attacks civilians with the intention of escalating, but they continue to attack only military targets despite this.

In addition, they said that if Israel wants to start a war, it should take into account that it will be considered an attack on Iran, and that Iran will intervene militarily and join Hezbollah. They also threatened that Israel would face massive launches from both Iran and Lebanon.

This is the first time that a Hezbollah source has confirmed that Iran will join Hezbollah in an eventual attack.
