Israel at War Watch: Iran and Syria Ready to Re-Arm Hezbollah
Katyusha rockets are fired from the outskirts of the southern Lebanese port city of Tyre into Israel on August 6. Turkey has grounded two Syria-bound Iranian planes over the past month to search for weapons following Israeli intelligence that Iran is supplying rockets to Hezbollah.
Washington Times: Report: Iran, Syria re-arming Hezbollah
Iran and Syria are working to replenish weaponry and funding for Hezbollah militants in Lebanon, a London Arabic newspaper reported Monday.
The daily al-Sharq al-Awast quoted a senior officer of the Revolutionary Guard in Tehran saying huge quantities of weapons reached Damascus during the last three weeks and are waiting to be transferred to Lebanon.
A spokesman for the Iranian foreign ministry, Hamid Rada Asafi, confirmed Sunday “the government is learning the need for aid and ways to transfer it to Lebanon.”
United Nation Security Resolution 1701 is failing. Aren’t Syria and Iran as members of the United Nations obligated to comply with the resolution? Or are they blowing it off like all of the previous resolutions?
If Israel wishes to defend itself, this cease-fire cannot last much longer.
If not, then Hezbollah will re-arm with the acquiescence of the Lebanese Army and UNIFIL. So, in the next war there will be 30,000 troops in southern Lebanon at peril.
