Naqoura, 3 August 2006 PRESS RELEASE Heavy Exchanges of Fire
UNITED NATIONS INTERIM FORCE IN LEBANON (UNIFIL) Naqoura, 3 August 2006 PRESS RELEASE Heavy exchanges of fire continued unabated throughout the UNIFIL area of operation in the past 24 hours. Hezbollah fired the largest number of rockets within a 24-hour period since the outbreak of hostilities from various locations. The IDF continued intensive shelling and aerial bombardment all across the south. It was reported that the IDF made two new ground incursions, entering Lebanese territory in two locations. Yesterday afternoon, they entered again the general area of Marwahin and Ramyah in the western sector. Additional reinforcements were brought in during the night. Heavy shelling and intensive exchanges on the ground are reported this morning from the area of Al Duhayra, west of Marwahin. Last night, the IDF entered Lebanese territory in the general area of Sarda in the eastern sector. Heavy shelling is reported this morning in the area, but no fighting on the ground. The IDF has maintained their presence in five other locations on Lebanese territory, in the general areas of Ayta Ash Shab in the western sector, and Marun Al Ras, Mays Al Jabal, Hula/Markaba, and Kafr Kila/Tayyabah/Addaisseh in the central sector. Intensive shelling is reported in all these areas, except in Marun Al Ras. Sporadic exchanges on the ground were reported in the general area of Tayyabah, Dier Mimess, Hula, and Ayta Ash Shab. The IDF reinforced their presence in the area of Marun Al Ras last night. One rocket from the Hezbollah side impacted directly on a UNIFIL position in the general area of Hula yesterday evening, causing extensive material damage, but no casualties. -

Hizbollah's Primary Agent of Change
Hizbollah’s Primary Agent of Change: Dani Berkovich UN Security Council resolution 1701 stipulates deployment of the Lebanese army in south- ern Lebanon, disarming the region of any non-government-held weapons, and prevention of hostilities. It places the major burden of implementation on the shoulders of the Lebanese army, as the principal executive arm of the Lebanese government, a situation that implies po- tential friction with Hizbollah. However, in terms of actual steps to disarm Hizbollah, there is a long way from theory to practice. The Lebanese government, led by Fouad Siniora, has no intention of acting against Hizbollah, since it is well aware that this will jeopardize the fragile domestic stability in the country. Nevertheless, deploying the Lebanese army lays the foundation for trends that, if actual- ized, will have a positive impact on Israel’s security, including instilling the concept of the Lebanese state and reinforcing its authority, sovereignty, and responsibility; and on the op- posite side, gradual containment of Hizbollah as a military organization. This is a complex and arduous process that Israel should support and Hizbollah is bound to try to sabotage, and its success depends not only on the capabilities of the Lebanese army but also on the government’s determination to advance it. But in any case, the very launching of this process is one of the recent war’s achievements.

An Analysis of Hezbollah's Use of Irregular Warfare (2012)
AN ANALYSIS OF HEZBOLLAH’S USE OF IRREGULAR WARFARE STEPHEN KEITH MULHERN Intelligence and National Security Studies Program APPROVED: Larry A. Valero, Ph.D., Chair Charles R. Boehmer, Ph.D. William T. Dean, III, Ph.D. Benjamin C. Flores, Ph.D. Dean of the Graduate School Copyright © by Stephen Keith Mulhern 2012 Dedication To Mom and Dad, Thank you. AN ANALYSIS OF HEZBOLLAH’S USE OF IRREGULAR WARFARE by STEPHEN KEITH MULHERN, B.A. Political Science THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at El Paso in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Intelligence and National Security Studies Program THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO December 2012 Acknowledgements I would like to thank: Drs. Larry Valero, Charles Boehmer, and William Dean for taking the time to be part of this thesis. Lisa Tomaka, Nicholas Komorowski, and Dr. Dennis Soden for giving me a productive and supportive workplace. And my parents, Michael and Linda Mulhern, for giving me the parental support to finish this work. v Abstract Low-intensity conflicts and insurgencies have been on the rise since the end of World War II. A particularly strong example of these conflicts is the ongoing conflict between the Lebanese Hezbollah and the state of Israel. In the course of the conflict, Hezbollah was able to accomplish what other, more powerful Arab states could not; Hezbollah forced Israel to unilaterally end a conflict. How did Hezbollah accomplish this? This thesis will provide a qualitative analysis of Hezbollah’s use of the instruments of power in their irregular warfare strategy against Israel during the occupation of southern Lebanon. -
