Arab sources are reporting that Hizbullah recently received advanced Iranian missiles capable of striking deep into the Israeli heartland.
The London daily Al-Quds Al-Arabi reported that Iran had obtained special aid for Islamic Jihad in Gaza, with the aim of harming the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel.
The Kuwaiti daily Al-Siyassa reported that Hizbullah was surveying along the western Lebanon mountains, from Mt. Al-Baruk to the Mt. Sanin peaks, and was setting marks where it plans to position a network of antiaircraft missiles.
The paper added that Iranian experts who arrived in Lebanon were helping Hizbullah with the surveying, and that it was being carried out following information obtained by Lebanon from Arab and foreign diplomats that Israel was planning to attack Hizbullah in November.
