Why did Hezbollah stage Shebaa Farms attack?

The objective behind Hezbollah’s rocket attack on the occupied Shebaa Farms on Monday was to “deter the Israeli army from continuing its violations,” prominent sources told the pro-Hezbollah al-Akhbar newspaper in remarks published Tuesday.

“Hezbollah wanted to deliver a message to the concerned mediators, the Americans and the French, regarding the need to speed up the activation of the work of the monitoring committee and to begin implementing the mechanism in the south to avoid the ceasefire’s collapse, and in order not to interpret Hezbollah’s silence as weakness and impotence,” the sources added.
