Israel has accused Iran of building an airport in southern Lebanon that could be used as a launchpad for attacks against Israelis across the border.
Satellite images from Planet Labs Inc. obtained by The Associated Press from July 28 showed work on a 1.2 kilometer runway with four hangars constructed on a tarmac just east of the runway. Satellite images from January showed the runway largely unpaved. Israel has said in recent years that it shot down Hezbollah or Iranian-linked drones launched from Lebanon and Syria.
But tensions have mounted. Hezbollah is committed, like its patron Iran, to Israel’s destruction and its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, regularly threatens Israel. In an unusually bold attack earlier this year, a man who Israeli officials said was likely linked to Hezbollahfrom Lebanon and detonated a bomb that severely wounded an Israeli citizen. The group also allowed Palestinian militant factions to operate in its strongholds and fire rocket barrages toward Israel this past spring.
In his speech, Gallant did not describe exactly how Hezbollah would launch attacks from the runway or use the airport for “terrorist purposes.” He said that, in the event of a conflict, Israel would be prepared to strike Hezbollah with “deadly force” to ensure “Hezbollah and Lebanon pay a heavy price.”
