Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennet posted a disturbing claim on X today (Monday), where he said that many Shiites in Lebanon rent out space in their home or property for Hezbollah rockets, and are instructed to be ready to fire the rockets against Israeli civilians on command.
Bennet said he encountered this phenomenon when fighting in Lebanon many years ago as a company commander, but that now the IDF was "destroying these death machines."
Furthermore, he said that "Anyone who turns his home into a death launch pad puts his family in severe danger, and ONLY he is responsible for the consequences."
The IDF has struck some 800 Hezbollah targets today throughout southern Lebanon and the Bekaa region, in what is the most intense, concentrated aerial bombardment of the war so far.
The strikes were carried out in a number of waves and based on precise intelligence, targeting structures where Hezbollah hid rockets, missiles, launchers, drones, and other military infrastructure - including and especially those hidden in homes or on private property.
