(Res.) Alon Avitar, an expert on the Palestinian scene, spoke on 103FM about the elimination of two senior members of the organization in recent days. "The focus has shifted to the north, also in the scope of the fighting, in intensity, in tension, and certainly in the depth of the paralysis," he said. Avitar: "I'm not sure that the Iranians pressured Hezbollah with all their might to enter the campaign, but they are clear about the implications - an Israeli response deep into Lebanon" He added: "The Iranians will no longer be able to ignore Israel's presence in Syria and Lebanon. "The pair of presenters wondered whether Hezbollah stayed out of the Iranian attack on Israel in order to join in at a later stage in the war, and Avitar explained: "Iran entered the campaign by opening a new front and equation in such a way that it provides intensity in itself without necessarily bringing Hezbollah into the matter fully. "The Iranians decided to stand publicly, directly, to open a front on a certain scale with Israel, Avitar said.
