## Prediction

Within 24 hours, Hezbollah is likely to continue a pattern of limited but high-visibility FPV/kamikaze drone attacks on IDF vehicles, forward bases, and command posts along the border and in southern Lebanon. It is less likely to launch very large rocket or missile salvos into Israel in the immediate term, instead testing Israeli air defenses and degrading localized IDF positions. This approach aims to impose attrition while preserving escalation control ahead of seeing whether the US–Iran MoU proceeds. A single-symbolic but not overwhelming rocket barrage against northern Israeli cities remains possible as messaging.

## Drivers

- Recent release of multiple FPV strike videos including hits on Merkava tank and IDF command center
- Israel authorization of wider assassination campaign across Lebanon, incentivizing Hezbollah to retaliate asymmetrically
- Hezbollah’s historic pattern of calibrated response when strategic Iranian interests are in play
