Five years after imposing restrictions on arms exports to Turkey, Norway has decided to accept Ankara’s arms applications.
Hezbollah released today a video showing an underground facility in Lebanon used to store and launch precision missiles.
The highly-edited video, lasting 4 minutes and 30 seconds, shows missiles inside the underground facility and missile launch sites. It also shows Hezbollah members moving through wide lighted tunnels, which are dug up on the rock, using motorbikes and other vehicles.
Trucks are seen carrying missiles marked “Imad 4” inside the network of tunnels, an apparent reference to Hezbollah commander Imad Mugnigeh who was killed in Damascus in 2008 in an attack attributed to Israel.

The video titled “Our Mountains Are Our Arsenals” shows a hatch opening to reveal a missile launcher aimed at the sky.
“We have targets in our possession, the coordinates are in our hands, and these missiles have been positioned and are aimed at targets with the utmost secrecy,” Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said in audio with English and Hebrew subtitles. “The weapons, personnel, experience and determination are stronger than ever”, Nasrallah says.
The video’s release coincides with the start of negotiations in Doha for a cease-fire in Gaza and the strengthening of diplomatic efforts in Lebanon to avoid an escalation of war.
It is recalled that Hezbollah has strengthened militarily since the last war against Israel in 2006. According to experts, it has in its possession a wide range of heavy artillery missiles, ballistic missiles, anti-aircraft, anti-tank and anti-ship missiles.
The terrorist organization also has a vast network of underground tunnels in southern Lebanon and the eastern Bekaa Valley, near the border with Syria. Hezbollah has vowed revenge for the killing of its military commander, Fouad Soukr, in the Lebanese capital last month.
However, according to the Washington Post, Hezbollah is not going to launch a major retaliatory attack on Israel while Qatar is negotiating a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
Today, Friday, it became known that the terrorist organization possesses in its hands the US proposal for the cessation of hostilities with Israel, according to which southern Lebanon will be disarmed, the terrorist organization will move to a distance of at least 10 kilometers from the border with Israel and the heavy weapons will be removed, according to the Arab media skynewsarabia.
