The footage aired on the Iran-backed party and militia's Al-Manar television showed barges from reconnaissance drones over the Karish gas field and their coordinates. It ended with footage of a rocket with the words "within range" in Arabic and Hebrew.
The video was aired as the US energy envoy, Amos Hochstein, was landing in Beirut to mediate ongoing talks between Lebanon and Israel over their sea borders. Lebanon claims the Karish gas field is disputed territory under ongoing maritime border negotiations, whereas Israel says it lies within its internationally recognized economic waters.
Earlier this month, the IDF shot down three Hezbollah unarmed drones flying over the Karish gas field in the Mediterranean Sea. Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati criticized Hezbollah, saying the move could pose risks to the country.
The terror group's leader, Hassan Nasrallah. said in an interview last week that Hezbollah can locate and strike Karish and any other Israeli gas field.
