Hezbollah, and several Lebanese and Palestinian armed parties and groups have claimed attacks since Oct. 8, causing concerns across the country.
In recent weeks, this “support front” for Gaza has included militants from Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri’s Amal movement, members of al-Fajr Forces, the military wing of the al-Jamaa al-Islamiya in Lebanon, and fighters of the Eagles of the Whirlwind, the armed wing of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP). This is in addition to the presence of Hamas’ Qassam Brigades and the al-Quds Brigades of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ).
