A senior Hezbollah official told Reuters that the group has conducted no operations against Israel since the announcement of the U.S.-Iran agreement, according to the report circulated Monday by N12 analyst Asaf Rozentzweig. The claim, if accurate, would mark a notable departure from Hezbollah's ongoing campaign of cross-border attacks since October 2023, during which the organization has launched thousands of rockets, drones, and anti-tank missiles at Israeli territory. The statement comes amid a flurry of reports and diplomatic maneuvering surrounding the emerging U.S.-Iran deal, which The Zioneer has covered in a series of BACKGROUND items — including an Israeli source's assertion that Israel is not obligated by the agreement (Jun 13), and analysts' assessments that Iran may be shelving planned retaliation under cover of the deal (Jun 15). However, the Hezbollah official's declaration remains a single-source claim via Reuters, and has not yet been independently corroborated by Israeli military or intelligence sources. It is also unclear whether the statement refers to all Hezbollah activity or only officially acknowledged operations; the IDF has reported several cross-border incidents in recent days.
