Isaac Herzog put an end to the speculation.
The president of Israel gave a short interview to the British Sky News on Sunday, in which he denied that his country had anything to do with the series of attacks against Hezbollah, during which walkie-talkies and other IT devices of members of the terrorist organization exploded in Lebanon, claiming the lives of 39 people and at least three thousand wounded. As is well known, the attacks were widely believed to have been carried out by Israel, which has neither confirmed nor denied its involvement - until now.
"Israel is in a dangerous situation and there is the possibility of escalation," said Isaac Herzog. He added: a war against Lebanon is not in their interest, but this country was hijacked by a terrorist organization functioning as a political party, Hezbollah.
During the interview, the Israeli president showed a photo taken by the IDF on Saturday showing Hezbollah military commanders killed by an Israeli airstrike in Beirut on Friday.
Isaac Herzog also talked about how Hezbollah has quite a few enemies recently: among other things, it has been strangling and destroying Lebanon for a long time.
“We are only here to protect ourselves. That's all we're doing," he said, adding that they're making it clear to the world that they need to act.
Any normal nation would do so, including Great Britain, or any other sovereign state, in order to protect its own people, he emphasized.
According to the Israeli president, his country maintains excellent relations with the British government, "but it must also be understood that we expect our friends and allies to always be there for us, just as we are there for them."
That is why we are disappointed, and we have made this known to our friends, he noted.
The international press office of the Hungarian government informed in a statement on Saturday that the secret services have been investigating since Wednesday and have questioned the 49-year-old owner-CEO Cristiana Barsony-Arcidiacono on several occasions.

The investigation results of the Constitutional Protection Office (AH) confirmed the cabinet's previous information that the beeping devices used in the explosions were never in Hungary.
As we reported, Zoltán Kovács, the state secretary responsible for international communications and relations, announced a few days ago: the authorities have confirmed that the company in question is only a commercial intermediary, and has no production or operating premises in Hungary.
