Hezbollah's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, has revealed that the group's recent retaliatory attack against Israel was intentionally delayed. The decision was influenced by multiple factors, including ongoing ceasefire negotiations in Gaza and significant military mobilization by both Israel and the United States. Nasrallah stated that the delay was aimed at giving the Gaza ceasefire talks a chance, despite new conditions put forward by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The group's actions were also intended to keep Israel on edge. The response delay was also due to political reasons following the assassination of Fuad Shukr.
