In an interview with Sky News, he rejected the accusations and assured that Israel does not want a full-scale war with this country. In addition, according to him, Hezbollah has many enemies. “Israel is not interested in a war with Lebanon, but this country was captured by Hezbollah and Israel is fighting for the entire free world,” the president added.

At the same time, Herzog admitted that there is a possibility of a “dramatic escalation” of the situation against the background of intensifying hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

Pagers burstAs UNIAN reported, on September 17, it became known about a large number of explosions in Lebanon and Syria. The mass media wrote about the simultaneous detonation of pagers from a new batch recently received by Hezbollah.

There they announced a cyber attack by Israel, but the country did not report its involvement in it. The very next day, walkie-talkies and radio-electronic equipment exploded. It was reported that there were dead and injured as a result of the attack.

According to Western journalists, Israel could have been planning this operation for at least 15 years. About 28-56 grams of explosives and a remote trigger were placed in the pagers.
