Israeli military: Iran boosting effort to give Hezbollah precision-missile capability

August 29, 2019

JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israel’s military accused Iran on Thursday of intensifying efforts to set up precision-missile plants for Hezbollah guerrillas in Lebanon.

“What we have seen them do is to generally … enhance the pace,” Lieutenant-Colonel Jonathan Conricus, a military spokesman, said in a briefing to reporters. “So it means … faster in terms of buildings, facilities, locations, conversion-and-manufacturing facilities – and it means more people, operatives involved in doing so. More locations.”
