Lebanese strategic military expert Khaled Hamada revealed that the most pressing issue following recent assassination attempts is the swift reconstruction of Hezbollah's leadership and the appointment of new commanders.

This necessity arises particularly in light of the attempts on the life of the party's Secretary-General, which demands decisive actions for rebuilding its leadership structure.

Hamada emphasized that the 'Israeli' airstrikes on the southern and eastern regions of the southern suburbs represent a dangerous development that requires all parties to exercise caution. He indicated that this attack necessitates comprehensive preparations for retaliation, which could include launching thousands of rockets against Israeli Occupation.

In an interview with Roya, Hamada noted that the Israeli Occupation expects responses proportional to the scale of the strikes; however, it is uncertain where those responses will emerge from—potentially extending beyond Lebanon to include Iraq and the Houthis, thereby escalating the situation beyond a mere Lebanese reaction.

He addressed the security breaches that led to assassination attempts, clarifying that it remains unknown whether these breaches have exposed Hezbollah's missile stockpiles or its plans to target specific sites in the occupied territories. Hamada suggested that developments in the coming days will shed more light on this issue.

The military expert questioned whether changes in leadership would lead to significant field transformations, asserting that the battlefield will ultimately determine the outcome. He stressed that the success or failure of the assassination attempt in the southern suburbs will dictate Hezbollah's actions in the upcoming phase. The party will need to reorganize and choose new leadership if the operation succeeds or address its vulnerabilities if it fails.

Hamada concluded by reinforcing that the critical task lies not just in responding to the assassinations but in the process of reconstructing Hezbollah's leadership. The absence of leaders necessitates the rapid appointment of others, with one of the current leaders needing to take the initiative to devise effective plans to overcome the repercussions of the attack in the southern suburbs and assess the damage caused, including the attempt on Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah's life.
