Israeli media: "Israel" preparing for Hezbollah response over Karish

Israeli news website Walla reported on Friday that the Israeli occupation forces are preparing for a response by Lebanese Hezbollah to the Israeli activity at the Karish gas platform.

According to the website, the IOF claimed that it was preparing for a "provocation", adding that the current issue requires military and diplomatic thinking.

In addition, the website said that Israeli security forces warned of a drone attack, a bombing, or even missiles fired at the Karish platform.

It is noteworthy that the Karish field is located within borderline number 29, which the Beirut negotiating delegation considers a Lebanese border.

Walla said that the Israeli occupation forces are preparing for various security scenarios after activating the platform in the disputed area, quoting security sources as saying that the IOF is not deploying sufficient forces around the Karish field.

On Thursday, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, stressed that "The main goal should be preventing the enemy from extracting oil and gas from Karish and impeding the activity that will start or that might have already started."

Sheikh Naim Qassem, the Deputy Secretary-General of Hezbollah, had said that the Lebanese Resistance is prepared to take appropriate measures against "Israel's" attempts at gas exploration in disputed maritime zones.

In the same context, the head of the Lebanese military-technical delegation and negotiator, Brigadier General Bassam Yassin, had explained that "Israel" would be violating the Lebanese sovereignty by extracting gas from the Karish field and exporting it.

Greece to Lebanon: Vessel in Mediterranean not owned by government

Abdallah Bou Habib, the Lebanese Foreign Minister told Al Mayadeen that the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the Lebanese Chargé d'Affairs to Athens.

Bou Habib added that the Greek Foreign Ministry informed the Lebanese Chargé d'Affairs that the extraction vessel in the Mediterranean is not owned by the Greek government.

The Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Beirut stated that the Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs was informed of the presence of Greek sailors on board the ship that "Tel Aviv" brought to the Karish field.

Our correspondent pointed out that "the Lebanese Foreign Ministry was informed that the ship was owned by a private company, and the government had nothing to do with it, despite the presence of Greek sailors on it."

Part of the Karish field is located within borderline No. 29, which the Lebanese negotiators consider the Lebanese border. Therefore, the excavations carried out by this company, on the recommendation of "Israel", are illegal.

Yesterday, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said during a televised speech that what happened over the course of the past few days signals that Lebanon is entering a new stage.

"With the maritime borders and the vast riches in the [Mediterranean] sea, Lebanon today is before an issue that must become a major national cause," Sayyed Nasrallah added.

A "neighboring treasure" is how the Hezbollah leader referenced the riches in the Mediterranean, stressing that all of the wealth lying within and beneath the waters of the sea belongs to all of the Lebanese people, and it is "the last remaining hope to rescue Lebanon from collapse."

The Karish gas field is a red line; therefore, all that is extracted from it is contested, Sayyed Nasrallah stressed.

The resistance is one of the options available to the Lebanese state and the Lebanese people in this confrontation for wealth, Sayyed Nasrallah highlighted, underlining that the resistance would not stand idle as the Israeli occupation robs Lebanon of its treasures and wealth and the only hope for saving its people.
