BEIRUT: Hezbollah, which has exchanged fire with Israeli forces since October, last went to war with Israel in 2006 and has since expanded its domestic and regional influence, politically and militarily.
Smoke rises from the southern Lebanese town of Khiam, amid ongoing cross-border hostilities between Hezbollah and Israel i forces, as pictured from Marjayoun, near the border with Israel , Aug 25, 2024.
Created at the initiative of Iran's Revolutionary Guards, the Shiite Muslim movement gained its moniker as"the Resistance" by fighting Israeli troops who occupied southern Lebanon until 2000. But Hezbollah has maintained a discreet presence there, where it enjoys broad support and where experts say it likely has a network of underground tunnels.
It has supported and trained Iran-backed groups in Iraq and Houthi rebels in Yemen, who since October have claimed attacks on Israel and Israeli-linked shipping interests. It is now a key political player, though detractors have accused it of being a"state within a state". Its trademark yellow flags and huge portraits of Nasrallah, along with pictures of slain commanders, fighters and"axis of resistance" figures, adorn areas of the country where it is popular.
