🇱🇧🇮🇱⚡- "It was clear that it was only a matter of time before Hezbollah resumed its smuggling activities, using any available means, land, air, or sea. It seems Hezbollah has chosen the sea as its preferred route, and the Israeli intelligence has detected this. The intelligence was leaked to the Saudi newspaper as a first step in conveying a message to Hezbollah that 'We know about you'.

Al-Hadath receives leaks from the Israeli security establishment, which uses the outlet as a means of conveying messages," - Galei Tzahal (Israeli Army Radio), IDF official outlet.

The claim of Hezbollah smuggling via the sea was initially reported by al-Hadath and al-Arabiya, as confirmed by Galei Tzahal. Both are Saudi state-owned outlets, known for being very anti-Iran and often report misinformation against Tehran and its allies.

Note, al-Hadath cited a 'Western official' as its source, contradicting Galei Tzahal, which claims the Israeli intelligence leaked information to the outlet.
