How does Hezbollah plan to use these EMP weapons strategically?
Hezbollah plans to use EMP weapons strategically to disable Israeli electronic systems, including communication and radar, thereby creating an advantage in military operations. These weapons, supplied by Iran, could be deployed from drones or rocket launchers to incapacitate Israel's critical infrastructure during conflicts, particularly in the Golan Heights and Galilee regions. The aim is to disrupt Israeli military coordination and aerial cover, facilitating Hezbollah's ground attacks and enhancing its operational effectiveness in a potential conflict with Israel[1][4][5].
