Official: Hezbollah is behind the bomb explosion in Israel last month

April 29, 2023

The Israeli military said security forces killed a man wearing an explosive belt after he apparently crossed from Lebanon into Israel and detonated a bomb on March 13 near the Megiddo junction in northern Israel.

Officials said at the time that the possible involvement of Iran-backed Hezbollah in the explosion was under investigation.

In response to a question on Channel 12 TV about whether the political crisis in Israel over plans to change the justice system has emboldened Israel’s enemies, Hanegbi said: “Our estimates at the moment indicate that this could lead to operations that we have not taken into account in the past. »

“We saw Hezbollah carry out operations like that, like the Megiddo attack, which failed, but it was a kind of opposition that we are not used to,” he added.
