According to the article, Iran's network of Shiite terror proxies, including Hezbollah, are prepared to retaliate against potential joint U.S.-Israel attacks on Iranian military sites and leadership. While Hezbollah may not intervene in limited strikes, an attack on Iran's Supreme Leader is considered a "red line." Israel continues to target Hezbollah positions in Lebanon, aiming to prevent the group from rearming, particularly the Radwan Unit. Despite ceasefire obligations, the Lebanese army is reportedly not disarming Hezbollah. Some observers suggest that Hezbollah's recent failures have diminished its support among the Lebanese population.
