Killed and injured among the occupation forces due to intense rocket barrages from Lebanon

Field sources reported the killing of an Israeli and the injury of another with varying degrees of wounds today, Sunday, after an anti-tank missile fired from Lebanese territory fell towards the settlement of Misgav Am in the Upper Galilee. The direct hit led to fires in several vehicles and damage to vital facilities in the border area, amid continuous siren sounds.

For its part, the Israeli occupation army acknowledged detecting projectiles fired from Lebanon towards towns in the north, confirming material damage and human casualties among the settlers. This coincided with Hezbollah's announcement of targeting gatherings of occupation soldiers in the vicinity of Misgav Am with a precise rocket barrage that achieved direct hits.

In a related context, Israeli military sources announced the injury of two reserve soldiers due to mortar shells fired from southern Lebanon towards military sites in the north of the country. These field developments come one day after the occupation army command approved operational plans for continued fighting on the northern front.

Early hours of Sunday witnessed a qualitative escalation, as Hezbollah carried out a series of attacks that included more than 14 military operations using rockets, drones, and artillery shells. These operations targeted movements of occupation vehicles and gatherings of its soldiers in the battle axes in southern Lebanon and the settlements adjacent to the border.

The party clarified in successive statements that its fighters shelled military sites and gatherings in the towns of Adayssa, Markaba, Khirbet Yaroun, and Muhaysibat Hill with rocket salvos. The targeting also included sites in Khiam, Wadi Al-Asafir, and Al-Hamamess site, in addition to shelling the center of the Khiam detention facility's vicinity using heavy rockets.

In a remarkable development, swarms of kamikaze drones launched aerial attacks targeting the Avivim and Ramot Naftali barracks, leading to the activation of Israeli air defense systems. Rocket fire also hit the settlements of Dishon and Avivim, as part of what the party described as a defensive response for Lebanon and its people in the face of ongoing aggression.

On the other hand, Israeli occupation aircraft continued their violent raids on various areas in southern Lebanon, where the raids targeted villages in the Nabatieh district and the towns of Rihan and Qatrani. The aerial bombardment extended to the Mashghara area in Western Bekaa, causing widespread destruction to properties and infrastructure.

Local sources monitored an Israeli drone targeting a civilian car at the Burj Al-Muluk – Khiam – Kfarkila triangle, resulting in the injury of three people inside it. These raids come within the escalation policy pursued by the occupation against Lebanese villages and towns since the start of border confrontations this March.

The head of the Misgav Am settlement council indicated that four explosions shook the settlement without prior warning, causing panic among the remaining settlers. He confirmed that shrapnel from the explosions caused severe damage to a house and two vehicles, amid the inability of interception systems to counter some short-range projectiles.

Official statistics issued by the Lebanese authorities indicate that the ongoing Israeli aggression since the beginning of the month has led to the martyrdom of 1001 people and the injury of 2584 others. Military operations have also caused a major displacement wave, with more than one million Lebanese leaving their homes to escape intense aerial and artillery bombardment.

The attacks come in defense of Lebanon and its people and in response to the escalating Zionist aggressions.
