The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah attacked Friday the Tsnobar base in the occupied Syrian Golan with a salvo of 50 Grad rockets in response to the Israeli occupation's aggression on southern Lebanon.

The Resistance declared that the operation came in support of the steadfast Palestinian people and in support of their Resistance in Gaza, as well as in response to the Israeli occupation's aggression on the village of al-Najariya, which killed several civilians on Friday morning.

Hezbollah mourned Resistance fighter Hussein Khodor "Abu Khodor" Mahdi as a martyr on the path to al-Quds, saying the combatant was born in 1962 and from the village of al-Najariya.

Video footage of the strike that martyred Mahdi was surfaced online, wherein the Israeli occupation forces drone struck a truck on the street.

The Resistance announced earlier in the day that it had carried out an attack with a number of attack drones on the newly established headquarters of the 411th Artillery Battalion in Ga'aton in response to the Israeli occupation's assassination of a Hezbollah official near the southern Lebanese town of Qana.

Hezbollah stuns 'Israel' in groundbreaking operation

Multiple Israeli media outlets are reporting on Hezbollah's military capabilities, following a series of top-tier attacks that targeted highly-prized Israeli surveillance and radar systems, while introducing new methods of engagement. 

The Ynet news website said that Israeli officers serving on the northern front have issued a warning regarding the fact that Hezbollah can launch an attack on Israeli soldiers near the Palestinian-Lebanese border 30 seconds after locating them. The capability has been showcased in several videos published by the group's Military Media unit, where Hezbollah utilized either suicide drones, anti-tank guided missiles, or artillery weapons of various types to target Israeli groupings and individual soldiers. 

Moreover, the military correspondent for the Israeli Army Radio said that Hezbollah has carried out a number of "high-quality attacks on more distant targets, using more advanced military weapons."

On Thursday, Hezbollah launched an airstrike via an Ababil-T drone armed with two Soviet-era S-5 rockets on a grouping of Israeli soldiers in Metulla. The attack marked the first-ever aerial strike launched on Israeli positions by a Lebanese entity and the first Arab strike on Israeli positions since 1973. 

The Israeli Army Radio's correspondent said that Hezbollah has made it "a normal" occurrence to launch dozens of rockets and missiles toward the Meron Air Traffic Control military base, one of the occupation's strategic military sites, used to both coordinate offensive operations and track and discover aerial threats. 

As for today's attacks, the correspondent pointed to an attack conducted via several suicide drones that targeted Israeli officers and soldiers' accommodation camps in Ga'aton. On this particular incident, the Israeli broadcaster Channel 14's correspondent said that the drone attack placed hundreds of thousands of Israelis in shelters and bunkers after sirens went off in Ben Ami, Gesher HaZiv, Evron, Nahariya, Sa'ar, Shlomi, Metzuba, Betzet, Achziv Miluot Industrial Zone, Liman, Rosh HaNikra, Avdon, Neveh Ziv, Manot, Ga'aton, Yechiam, Cabri, and Ein Yacov over 14 minutes. 

Channel 14 also reported that Israeli officials have always "estimated that Hezbollah had amazing capabilities that would surprise everyone."
