Iran's regime has sent an urgent message to Hezbollah's leadership, calling on the organization to prepare for the immediate outbreak of regional warfare and to ready its operatives for potential attacks against targets. Senior figures within the Lebanese organization conveyed this information to Arab media outlets, describing Iran's appeal as "urgent" and even "panicked." According to the organization's members, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the regime's top officials in Tehran have concluded that renewed fighting is a matter of "when, not if." Consequently, the IRGC is pressing Hezbollah to raise its general alert status, not only against Israel but also against American and other Western entities. Reports from the Gulf indicate that Iran desires a more significant role for Hezbollah in the upcoming conflict, seeking direct involvement from its operatives. Parallel reports suggest this was partly the reason for Iranian financial transfers to operatives injured in the pager attacks. Hezbollah sources claim Tehran paid approximately $200 million to strengthen the organization's loyalty.
