Hezbollah Media Relations Officer Mohammad Afif said on Tuesday that the strike near Tel Aviv was “just the beginning”, refuting claims that arms are hidden under civilian structures.
In an interview with Al-Jazeera, Afif commented on Tuesday strike Hezbollah’s Islamic Resistance fighters carried out, targeting Galilot Base belonging to the Israeli Military Intelligence Unit 8200 and the Mossad headquarters located in the suburb of Tel Aviv with Fadi-4 missiles.
“The strike on Unit 8200 and the Mossad HQ is just the beginning,” he said.
The media officer, meanwhile, denied all claims of Israeli incursion into Lebanon.
“All Zionist claims that enemy forces have allegedly crossed the border are lies. There has been no direct ground engagement yet between the resistance fighters and the occupation forces.”
In this context, Afif stressed that the Islamic Resistance fighters “are fully ready to engage with the enemy and inflict heavy losses upon them.”
On the other Hand, Hezbollah Media Relations Office issued a statement to refute claims that Hezbollah is hiding arms under civilian structures.
The office denounced the savage bombardment of Al-Sirat TV Channel HQ in Beirut’s southern suburb, Dahiyeh, voicing full support with the institution, its administration and staff.

The strike on Al-Sirat TV Channel “is a continuation of its barbarism and aggression against all media outlets, starting with targeting journalists in Gaza and Lebanon since the beginning of Al-Aqsa Flood battle without any consideration for international laws and conventions,” the statement read.
In this context, the Hezbollah Media Relations Office called upon “media outlets, professional, union and legal groups across the region and the world to condemn this blatant Zionist aggression and expose the criminal practices committed by the Zionist enemy against the media and journalists.”
