Tel Aviv. The Hezbollah in Lebanon has recently tested some of its upgraded missiles in Yemen.

This is in a while when Israel keeps attacking sites where the missiles are upgraded in Syria. In recent years Israel performed hundreds of attacks on targets in Syria where the missiles are being upgraded and also targeted convoys on their way from Iran to Syria with the systems that are used to make the missiles more accurate.

The attacks did not allow the Hezbollah to test the upgraded missiles on Syrian soil.

Sources said that this is the reason why recently Hezbollah members came to Yemen, where the Houthi rebels, another Iranian terror proxy are operating.

With help from the Houthis, the upgraded missiles of the Hezbollah were tested.

Israel has recently declared that is has a “target bank” that includes all the sites in Lebanon where the Hezbollah are hiding the missiles aimed at Israel.

Israeli sources said that if the Hezbollah launches missiles into Israel the retaliation will be massive and will affect all the Lebanese territory.
