The Operations Room of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon released a statement on Friday evening, stating that the Israeli occupation forces, after facing significant setbacks and strong resistance during their attempts to advance toward the southern border villages adjacent to occupied Palestine in the eastern sector, have recently tried to establish new attack fronts in the western sector. This includes a movement shift from Ras al-Naqoura and Jal al-Alam towards al-Mshairfeh and al-Labouna.

The statement clarified that the Israeli occupation forces "aim to use the terrain, which they believe could provide an advantage." The statement further noted that the Israeli air force has conducted numerous airstrikes, accompanied by heavy artillery bombardment from land and sea, targeting areas like al-Dhahira, Alma al-Shaab, and al-Naqoura before attempting to advance on the newly established fronts.

Early on Tuesday, a unit of the Israeli occupation forces tried to advance from Ras al-Naqoura towards al-Labouna, intending to reach a UNIFIL center and take a position there. However, the Resistance confronted them with appropriate weapons, forcing their retreat.

On Wednesday, the statement underscored, that the Israeli occupation forces made three more attempts to advance towards al-Labouna, but each time they were repelled by the Resistance, who targeted them with rockets, artillery shells, and guided missiles, ultimately forcing a retreat and inflicting substantial losses among their ranks.

Additionally, the statement highlighted that on Wednesday, the Resistance detected an Israeli infiltration attempt from Ras al-Naqoura towards al-Mshairfeh. The Resistance then targeted the infiltrating group with an attack drone, which exploded among them, causing casualties among most of the soldiers.

On Thursday, another group of Israeli occupation soldiers attempted to advance towards al-Labouna from Ras al-Naqoura, accompanied by a Merkava tank. According to the statement, as soon as the tank came within range, the Resistance struck it with a guided missile, directly hitting and destroying it. The operation caused the tank to catch fire, resulting in the death of its crew and injuries to soldiers who had taken cover nearby. Despite four separate attempts over several hours to retrieve the casualties, the Israeli occupation forces were repeatedly repelled by the Resistance fighters, forcing their withdrawal each time.

Amidst the intense confrontations between Hezbollah and Israeli occupation officers and soldiers, the support units continue to target Israeli occupation army gatherings, positions, and supply lines at military sites and bases along the front lines and within border settlements in the occupied territories, achieving confirmed hits, as reported.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon's Operations Room further highlighted that both the missile and air forces of Hezbollah are persistently targeting Israeli occupation military bases and settlements deep in northern occupied Palestine, describing this effort as "a gradual escalation, day by day."

They further noted that all of these military operations by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon have been conducted "with high-level, real-time coordination between the leadership of the Islamic Resistance and the operations room, extending to the brothers stationed on the front lines."

Additionally, the Operations Room stressed that despite the Israeli occupation army’s recent "days after announcing the start of its so-called land maneuver in southern Lebanon, cannot show its tanks and military vehicles to the Lebanese side, for fear of targeting them, and places them in unexposed places," adding that these vehicles have nevertheless been targeted by missiles and artillery shells, inflicting heavy losses.

The statement also confirmed that, as of the time of its release, the Israeli occupation forces had "failed to secure control over any of the strategic hills they aimed to capture." Instead, they have only managed to reach a few homes on the outskirts of some border villages, primarily for photo ops and media stunts.

The Resistance's Operations Room also pointed out, in its statement, that "the enemy army uses settlers' houses in some northern settlements as gathering centers for its officers and soldiers, and that its military bases that direct the aggression against Lebanon are located in settlement neighborhoods, in major occupied cities such as Haifa, Tabariya, Akka and others."

In this context, the room emphasized that these houses and military bases are "targets for the missile and air force of the Islamic Resistance," warning settlers not to be near these military gatherings, "until further notice, in order to preserve their lives."

The Operations Room of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon concluded its statement by affirming that it "stands by its pledge and promise to its highest and holiest martyr, His Eminence the Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, that the settlements in northern occupied Palestine will remain free of settlers until the war on Gaza and Lebanon stops."
