Israel issued a formal complaint to the United Nations Security Council over Hezbollah’s recently revealed “Golan Project” which has positioned operatives along Israel’s northern border. Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon on Wednesday wrote to council members stating that Israel “will not ignore the conversion of Syria and Lebanon to a military front against us and will act with force against the aggression from Tehran,” referring to Hezbollah’s Iranian backers.

“Hezbollah is not yet recognized as a terrorist organization by the Security Council,” Danon noted, “despite a plethora of evidence of cross-border terrorist activity.” The Lebanese-based Shiite group fought Israel in the First Lebanon War in 1982 and the Second Lebanon War in 2006 when it shot rockets into Israeli civilian population centers, promoting a harsh Israeli response. Recently it also made deep inroads as a major political party in the Lebanese parliament.

Israel emitió una queja formal ante el Consejo de Seguridad de las Naciones Unidas por el recientemente revelado “Proyecto del Golán” de Hezbolá, que ha colocado agentes a lo largo de la frontera norte de Israel. El embajador de Israel en la ONU, Danny Danon, escribió el miércoles a los miembros del consejo diciendo que Israel “no ignorará la conversión de Siria y el Líbano en un frente militar contra nosotros y actuará con fuerza contra la agresión de Teherán”, refiriéndose a los partidarios iraníes de Hezbollah.
