The spokesman refused to provide details about these talks, leaving it to Israel “to talk about its military operations.” “We have had conversations with them about these operations, but the timing, the purpose, the pace of these operations – let them talk,” he said.
For its part, the Lebanese army announced, after these threats, the repositioning of its forces in the south of the country, according to a Lebanese military official, at a time when Israel established a “closed military zone” in the border towns. Hezbollah’s local Al-Manar channel announced “Zionist artillery shelling” near the villages of Al-Wazzani, Sahl Al-Khiyam, Alma Al-Shaab and Al-Naqoura, while the Lebanese news agency “ANI” reported “major artillery shelling on Al-Wazzani.”

Earlier, President Joe Biden indicated on Monday that he opposes Israeli ground operations in Lebanon, and called for a ceasefire at a moment of extreme tension after the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.
Earlier on Monday, the United Nations peacekeeping force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), which numbers more than 10,000 soldiers, could no longer conduct patrols due to the intensity of the fighting, the UN Secretary-General announced on Monday.
