This is the best summary I could come up with:
Since the beginning of the war in Gaza, Hezbollah has been attacking IDF forces and Israeli civilians in the northern border region on a daily basis.
There have consequently been intense exchanges of fire between the terror organization in Lebanon and the IDF, resulting in significant damage in both countries and substantial casualties, mainly on the Hezbollah side.
Saturday morning, Hezbollah reported the death of its 122nd fighter from IDF fire since the start of the conflict between the two sides, but the estimate is that the number is much higher.
However, most assessments from various sources suggest that Hamas acted independently and did not inform its regional terror partners about the specific details of its plans.
The official assessment of intelligence and security agencies in Israel and the United States is that Iran and Hezbollah did not have precise knowledge of Hamas’s plan to carry out the attack.
One claim that arises is that Hezbollah, acting as a proxy for Iran, chooses not to risk a significant blow to its power for the sake of the Palestinian struggle.
