Israeli officials have been on high alert for a potential large-scale retaliation from Hezbollah, expecting thousands of rockets and missiles to be fired towards Israel. However, despite escalating tensions over the past 11 days, including the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, the anticipated major retaliation has not yet materialized.
Two main reasons have been cited for the lack of a significant response from Hezbollah. Firstly, the Israeli airstrikes have targeted and killed many of Hezbollah's senior commanders, leaving the organization's command structure in disarray. Secondly, Israeli airstrikes have also severely damaged key operational infrastructure that Hezbollah would need for a major retaliation.
