Incredibly he spoke directly to the people of Lebanon, trying to show them how Hezbollah is endangering them by essentially using them as human shields. Not long after he spoke, the Israel Defense Forces tweeted out the locations of Hezbollah bomb-making and missile sites in urban areas. https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/idf-tweets-hezbollah-missile-stockpile-coordinates-643912 Hezbollah keeps them under apartment buildings, knowing that Israel won't attack the sites, due to the presence of hundreds if not thousands of civilians in the area [it's the same reason that Hamas has its headquarters under the main hospital in Gaza]. This, however, may lead to some sanctions on Lebanon (as Hezbollah is for all extensive purposes, the government). https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/hezbollah-missile-site-revelations-could-trigger-us-sanctions-643957 And if for some odd reason, you think this isn't a big deal. Well a) remember the giant blast at the Beirut Port last month and b) this happened last week - https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/explosion-rocks-southern-lebanon-report-643140.
