Hezbollah, the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, showcased their strategic attacks on the Israeli military, particularly targeting a Merkava battle tank in al-Marj military base. The operation resulted in the destruction of the tank and casualties among its crew. Additionally, retaliation for recent Israeli aggressions led to successful strikes on various Israeli bases and barracks. The Resistance group also targeted surveillance equipment and buildings used by occupation soldiers.

Moreover, Hezbollah unveiled footage of two qualitative operations, which included attacks on Battalion 769’s command center in Beit Hillel and the 91st Division headquarters in Ayelet. These attacks demonstrated the group’s capability in using top-attack guided missiles against Israeli military assets effectively.

The operations by Hezbollah were in solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza and in response to Israeli aggression on Lebanese villages. Tragically, two fighters, Bilal Amin Mourad and Hussein Nabih Fawwaz, were martyred in the line of duty. Mourad, born in Aitaroun, and Fawwaz, born in Tebnine, were honored by Hezbollah, emphasizing their commitment to the resistance against Israeli forces.

Hezbollah’s latest use of top-attack guided missiles signifies a shift in their tactics against Israeli military assets near the Lebanese border. This precision-guidance system allows for effective targeting of mobile Israeli forces, even in challenging terrains. The real-time footage relayed to the operators enhances the accuracy of the attacks, showcasing Hezbollah’s technological advancements in their resistance efforts.

In a related incident, Hezbollah claimed responsibility for a strike that wounded four Israeli soldiers in northern Israel. This cross-border exchange of fire highlights the ongoing tensions between Hezbollah and Israel, with both sides sustaining casualties. The conflict has resulted in numerous fatalities on both sides, including militants and civilians, further escalating the situation in the region.
