Israel bombed Hezbollah positions in Lebanon, IDF said – will not allow increase in strength

On Thursday (6 November 2025), Israel once again attacked Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) confirmed the airstrike against Hezbollah by posting on Twitter.

Israeli attack on Hezbollah targets

According to information shared by the IDF, they have targeted Hezbollah positions. These bases of Hezbollah were destroyed last year. However, again these same bases were being used to manufacture equipment. Israel says that by doing this the ceasefire is being violated.

According to Israeli media, Hamas handed over the coffin containing the remains of Israeli Staff Sergeant Itay Chen to the IDF on Tuesday (November 4, 2025) night. He was the last dead hostage of American citizenship in the Gaza Strip.

‘Will not allow Hezbollah to become powerful’

Israeli government spokesman Shosh Bedrosian said Thursday, “We will not allow Hezbollah to re-arm, to organize, to increase its strength to threaten Israel.” The attack came as Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam and his government were meeting in Beirut to hammer out a plan to disarm Hezbollah and other non-governmental armed groups in the country.

Hezbollah’s letter to Lebanese authorities

On the other hand, Hezbollah has written a letter to the top officials of Lebanon. In this letter, Hezbollah has urged to force Israel to follow the rules of ceasefire instead of negotiating. Hezbollah has written this letter to the Prime Minister, President and Speaker of Parliament.

Hezbollah has said that the government’s hasty decision regarding the arms monopoly has given Israel an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. The issue of weapons should be discussed within the country. Should not have succumbed to Israeli or any other foreign demands regarding weapons.

Under the ceasefire plan presented by US President Trump, not only the release of hostages and prisoners but also the surrender of arms was agreed upon. The important issue in this entire peace plan was to lay down arms. Israel says that if weapons are not removed from these groups, the attacks will start again.
