RAMALLAH, May 22 (JMCC) - Hezbollah mobilized thousands of militants in southern Lebanon today in response to week-long Israeli defense exercises due to kick off on Sunday, an official from the Shiite militia group told
the AFP.
“The Hezbollah fighters have (been instructed) to be completely ready to confront Israeli maneuvers on Sunday,” Nabil Qaouk said.
“Thousands of our fighters will not go to the polls (for municipal elections on Sunday) and will be prepared from today” for any eventuality, he added.
“In the event of any new attack on Lebanon, the Israelis will not find anywhere in Palestine to hide,” he said.
