Hezbollah announced a “new and escalatory phase” in its war with Israel on Thursday – hours after the Israeli military confirmed its forces killed the leader of Hamas.

The terror group claimed it had used precision-guided missiles against Israeli troops for the first time since the Jewish state launched a ground invasion into Lebanon last month with the goal of rooting out Hezbollah militants.

In a statement, the Iran-backed terrorist organization said that their plan “will be reflected in the developments and events of the coming days” as hundreds of fighters are prepared to “counter any Israeli ground incursion into southern Lebanese villages.”

Hezbollah noted that attacks against Israel have increased in recent days, adding that it has killed 55 Israeli soldiers and injured 500 since the war erupted on Sept. 23.

The statement made no mention of the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar – a Hezbollah ally.
