Perhaps the most confirmed by many observers on the video of the facility “Emad 4” presented by the military media of the Lebanese Hezbollah that he sent messages of deterrence may be the last to the entity of the Zionist enemy that the response of the resistance to his assassination of the leader Fuad Shukr, “inevitably coming”, meaning that the saying of the certainty of the response confirmed by the leaders of Hezbollah is not just a threat, but an existing reality that shows that the party is preparing whether to launch the entity preemptively aggression against Lebanon or to carry out a counter-response to the response of the resistance.

On Friday, the military media of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon – Hezbollah broadcast a video entitled “Our mountains are our coffers” reviewing the “Emad 4” facility for the party’s missile capabilities.

The four-and-a-half-minute video revealed a military facility bearing the number four, indicating that the resistance owns more of these facilities, and what was s
hown in the video represents only a fraction of the total owned by the resistance, which may be revealed later in other episodes of this series, which is shown for the first time after “Hoopoe 1 and 2”.

What is also remarkable is the size of the facility, its underground extent, and the messages it carries to the Zionist enemy that the resistance is ready for all eventualities and that rocket launchers and members of Hezbollah are transported on motorcycles between tunnels.

Hezbollah fighters appeared inside the tunnels, which contain an entire lighting network, as well as places with computers and communications, as rocket trucks were transported to automatic launch gates, where rocket launchers lined up before being used in the bombing.

The video was accompanied by a previous speech by the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, in which he said: “The resistance now possesses accurate and inaccurate missiles and weapons capabilities, which imposed an Israel on Lebanon war, which will fac
e a fate it never expected.”

The video recalled Nasrallah’s speech in which he declared that “the battle with us is radiant along occupied Palestine, from the Lebanese border to the Jordanian border to the Red Sea, from Kiryat Shmona to Eilat.”

Observers believe that this video represents a clear indication of the surprises that the resistance keeps in Lebanon for its upcoming operations in response to the assassination of leader Fuad Shukr in the southern suburbs of Beirut, which the Secretary-General of Hezbollah confirmed by saying: “There are nights, days and the field between us.” He stressed the ability of the resistance to rearrange the rules of engagement, and that the decision is now in its hands.

These observers also believe that the video carried a message confirming the ability of Hezbollah to fight in the field and fire rockets, indicating its readiness to respond.

In addition, observers believe that the video presented by Hezbollah, which shows missiles, launchers, and infrastructure facilit
ies, is part of its campaign to review its readiness to respond to the assassination of Fuad Shukr, and through which it seeks to present itself as a ready force, and confirms that it will not retreat from its position, as a goal to achieve a deterrent balance with the Zionist enemy.

Military and strategic expert Brigadier General Mounir Shehadeh said that this video confirms that the Lebanese resistance is not deterred and does not fear war, but can turn the tables if America plays on time.

Shehadeh explained, in an interview with Al-Jazeera, that the response of Hezbollah to the assassination of Shukr has nothing to do with the visit of US envoy Amos Hochstein to Beirut and the Doha talks to discuss the possibility of reaching a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.

For his part, Ali Haidar, an expert in Zionist affairs, believes that the new video carried a warning message to the occupation entity not to exceed the specified limit in any response to the expected response of Hezbollah. He pointed out that Hezboll
ah wanted to say that its missile capabilities enable it to crush the depth of the strategic “Israel”.

Haidar stressed that the video is linked to the new stage to which the confrontation has risen. He pointed out that the resistance employs the cards of force in exchange for American intimidation.

He concluded by saying that the disclosure of these papers means that Hezbollah has moved from the decision stage to the operational prelude. He added that the video resolved the limitations of the Zionist entity’s ability to bet on pre-emptive strikes.

In the same context, the director of the Al-Quds Center for Zionist Studies, Imad Abu Awad, said that the video of Hezbollah will increase confusion within “Israel”, especially with talk of an intelligence failure of Hezbollah after the failure to appreciate the capabilities of the resistance in Gaza and its ability to resist.

Abu Awad predicted that there would be some kind of confusion at the political level and what could be done towards Hezbollah. He pointed
to the confusion between a Zionist preemptive strike and waiting for the Hezbollah’s response.

He pointed out that the Prime Minister of the Zionist enemy, Benjamin Netanyahu, finds himself facing a complicated equation, and may resort to thinking towards other turns in an attempt to get out of the predicament of the south, the north, or the region, especially with the lack of equipment and manpower.

After the military media in Hezbollah published the video, the Zionist media rushed to comment on it. It called it a “new threat” by the Hezbollah.

It stressed that the video of “Emad 4” published by Hezbollah from inside the tunnels is an exceptional warning, and shows its ability to hide its advanced weapons and store them in underground networks, which makes it more difficult to target them and makes their launch a greater challenge for the Zionist army.

Enemy media considered that the appearance of Hezbollah members in a large underground area, with pictures of Sayyed Nasrallah, the martyr Mughniyeh and t
he commander of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Qassem Soleimani on the walls is part of the psychological warfare.

The Zionist website Yedioth Ahronoth said that Hezbollah had released a new threatening film revealing an underground facility: “Huge tunnels, this is how they look, equipped with computers and lights of size and depth that allow trucks to pass through easily, and of course motorcycles.”

Describing the facility and the convenience of its work, he added: “A long, lighted maze and numbered trucks passing one after another undisturbed. At the end of the film, the underground rocket launcher and the name of the facility can be seen.”

Yedioth Ahronoth quoted the messages of the Emad 4 facility: “It shows the secrecy surrounding the location of the rocket capabilities of Hezbollah, and the deep underground facility far from hostile intelligence capabilities, as well as protecting targets.”

In turn, the Zionist newspaper Maariv acknowledged that “the Hezbollah is revealing f
or the first time its underground city: trucks ready to launch rockets.”

GAZA, The Palestinians Resistance Group (Hamas) rejected the new conditions set by the Israeli occupation Prime Minister Bejamin Netanyahu in order to reach a ceasefire agreement, including prisoners exchange deal.

Following the latest round of negotiations in Doha, Hamas released a statement on Sunday, stressing that Netanyahu is intentionally placing obstacles to prevent an agreement.

Hamas added, “after listening to mediators about the recent discussions, it is now clear to us that Netanyahu is still setting new conditions and demands to sabotage the mediators’ efforts and prolong the war.” The statement also criticized the new proposal, saying that it aligns with Netanyahu’s demands, particularly in his refusal to agree to a permanent ceasefire, withdraw entirely from Gaza Strip, and his insistence on occupying key areas, including the Netzarim Corridor, the Rafah Crossing, and the Salah Al-Din (Philadelphia) Corridor.

Hamas also stressed that Netanyahu bear full responsibility for not reaching an agr
eement, including his responsibility for the lives of prisoners, which are confronting the same danger as the Palestinian people are facing.

Hamas reaffirmed its commitment to the July 2nd agreed upon conditions, which was based on the announcement made by US President Joe Biden and the UN Security Council resolution.
