Iran Press/America: "Until now, Hezbollah and the regime have, in an unwritten understanding, practically adhered to certain limits in their military operations, meaning that confining their actions to border areas and shallow zones, targeting primarily military objectives," the mission said in a statement on Friday night.
But it seems an Israeli attack Tuesday on Dahieh, a suburb in Lebanon's capital of Beirut, which martyred the senior Hezbollah military commander Fuad Shukr, may have changed this.
"We anticipate that, in its response, Hezbollah will choose both broader and deeper targets, and will not restrict itself solely to military targets and means," the mission said in its statement.
The mission told CBS News that such targets would be within Israeli-occupied territories.
Hezbollah's secretary-general Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah said at the funeral of Fuad Shukr that the war with Israel had "entered a new phase" and that Israel had "crossed red lines," Al Jazeera reported.
