Hezbollah resistance fighters are the “sons of soil” who know it better than anyone else so the Israeli ground invasion of Lebanon will never be successful, says a journalist.
Hanady Salam, a journalist based in Beirut, told the Press TV website that the Israel regime is good in technological warfare and possesses state-of-the-art US weapons, but not in ground battles.
“They seem like better fighters from a warplane or a tank. Faced with the realities of war, away from any shelter, they run for their lives. This is what happened in 2006,” she said.
Salam was referring to the 2006 Israeli war on Lebanon when the Hezbollah resistance fighters forced the Israeli occupation forces to beat the humiliating retreat.
Israeli regime recently announced that it had launched a ground invasion of Lebanon after weeks of aerial bombardment that claimed hundreds of civilian lives in southern Lebanon and Beirut.
However, reports from the ground suggest that the attempts to cross into Lebanon from the occupied Palestinian territories have failed miserably with Hezbollah fighters putting up stiff resistance.
Scores of regime soldiers have either been killed or critically injured in face-to-face clashes with highly motivated Hezbollah fighters known for their hybrid war tactics.
