The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, carried out three operations this morning against targets in occupied Palestine in response to the massacres committed by "Israel" this past week against Lebanese civilians.

In the first operation, the Islamic Resistance targeted the Israeli Ramat David military base and airport with dozens of Fadi 1 and Fadi 2 rockets. It also launched a second operation on the same targets using dozens of Fadi 1 and Fadi 2 rockets.

A rocket impact has caused severe damage in northern #Haifa, where Israeli medics are treating at least 3 injured settlers.

The Resistance's third operation saw the targeting of the Rafael military-industrial complex at 6:30 a.m. Rafael specializes in electronic equipment and is located in the Zvulun valley, north of the occupied city of Haifa, and was targeted with dozens of “Fadi 1”, “Fadi 2” and "Katyusha" rockets.

The Resistance confirmed that these operations were in support of the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, in support of their Resistance, and as part of the initial response to the brutal massacre committed by the occupation in various Lebanese regions, on Tuesday and Wednesday, when it detonated thousands of pagers and wireless receiver communication devices, commonly known as walkie-talkies.

It is noteworthy that heavy barrages of rockets were launched from South Lebanon toward areas in the southern extremities of northern occupied territories, marking one of the deepest rocket attacks on Israeli targets since the launch of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. 

Sirens sounded across massive areas in the occupied territories, covering an array of 40 km from eastern occupied Palestine to areas north of Jenin in the occupied West Bank. Some of the settlements in which the sirens rang are located nearly 60 km away from the Israeli line of withdrawal from Lebanon. 

Explosions were also heard in the vicinity of the Ramat David Airbase on Sunday. 

The Israeli military command said that Hezbollah launched 15 333mm long-range rocket artillery shells, which hold an explosive warhead weighing 175 kg, at the Ramat David Airbase in the initial attack. 

According to these claims, this would be the first time that Hezbollah has launched this caliber of rockets at Israeli-occupied territories since October 7, 2023. Israeli media reported that only eight out of the 15 rockets were intercepted by air defenses.
