Strategy and weather: Why Hezbollah has stepped up aerial attacks

Hezbollah has increased aerial attacks due to wintry weather, which interferes with the IDF's ability to spot rocket launches and intercept them. The extensive arsenal held by Hezbollah in Lebanon also contributes to their advantage. The rocket fire has diplomatic significance as Hezbollah wants to show they are not surrendering and are capable of firing as much as they want. The bad weather affects interception systems and detection, giving the enemy an advantage. However, the weather has less effect on long-range missiles and rockets compared to UAVs.
