Such talk is happening when there are reports the Israeli army is running out of tanks and munitions and manpower as it continues its 10-month war on Gaza.

According to The New Arab a significant number of tanks have been damaged or are completely out of service amid its Gaza offensive, Israel military sources suggest but they did not reveal the exact number, Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth reported.

Nasrallah commented “if your tanks come to Lebanon and its south, you will not suffer from a shortage of tanks, because you will no longer have tanks.”

Making his comments at the end of Ashoura commemorations he warned if Israeli strikes continue on southern Lebanon, Hezbollah will target new settlements in Israel which have not been hit before.

The news of the missiles, trending on the social media, is the biggest ever launch in one day, a Wednesday, since 7 October, when Israel began its war on Gaza.

The rockets were launched in areas that included settlements and a military base.

Experts believe this launch will lead to escalation on Israel’s northern front and the raising of regional tensions, and were both Lebanon and Israel could be dragged into war.

The firing of the missiles came a day after Israel killed a senior Hezbollah commander named Taleb Sami Abdullah.

He was killed Tuesday night, following multiple Israeli strikes on a residential building in Jawya, southern Lebanon. Abdullah was a top commander in Hezbollah, it is pointed out.

His name is also trending on the social media and may have led to a new escalation that was already brewing between Hezbollah and Israel since early June when Hezbollah missiles carried through drones set the northern part of Israel on fire.

Like last time, the latest missiles have set fires in at least three locations in Israel with fire crews scurrying to the scenes. These locations included the Avivim settlement near the border with Lebanon after it was targeted with an anti-tank missile.

Military analysts are watching this northern front very carefully. Some say it could lead to another war while others point out the escalation is still within the agreed confines.

It is pointed out the United States doesn’t want another war escalation and is, maybe, pressuring Israel not to widen the conflict and go out for a fully-fledged war against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
