At the same time, senior members of the IDF's General Staff stressed that what is happening in the naval arena with Iran and the battle over the shipping lanes for threats in Lebanon must not be cut off.
One source described them as "Hamas' outpost in Lebanon."
In recent months, in several cases, Palestinian squads inspired by Hamas headquarters abroad have been able to launch rockets at Israel. Exacerbation in Lebanon and weakness of Hezbollah.

Assessments in the defense establishment are that the same squads of Palestinian rocket launchers are working to strengthen their position in the villages and refugee camps, and therefore they are turning to the axis of violent resistance to Israel. These terrorist acts are estimated to take place with the approval of local Hezbollah operatives and not with the approval of the senior leadership, and they also serve the economic interests of Hezbollah operatives and Palestinians who work together, among other things, in smuggling drugs and weapons to Israel.
The main concern in Israel is one of the intelligence gaps that exist around those Palestinian squads that are able, without any interruption and early warning, to launch rockets at the Israeli rear from a range of tens of kilometers and hit population centers. This is in contrast to Hezbollah, which usually launches into open areas.
A scenario which would harm Israeli civilians army may react harshly and will drag the Hezbollah response is difficult for him, and from there a short path to escalation. Therefore, the defense establishment recommended react judiciously and allow Hezbollah to restrain a team of Palestinians before a powerful response drag Hezbollah into the equation.
A senior army official said this week in a closed forum that Lebanon is changing, struggling for its very existence and consequences and changes on the ground as opposition Druze launch rockets by Hezbollah pad their villages and we must act with sensitivity to not be part of the process of change only affect him.
Moreover, he stressed Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi, given a situation in which there is a deterioration in the north, it is impossible to rule out any possibility that Hamas and Islamic Jihad will respond with rocket launches at Israel and not sit idly by.
