The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, Hezbollah,  announced today that it engaged the headquarters of the newly created command of the Israeli reconnaissance company in Arab Al-Aramsha, in the so-called "community center," using guided missiles and attack drones.

A direct hit was achieved alongside the injury and death of Israeli occupation troops, Hezbollah said in its statement.

Hezbollah stressed that its operation was in support of the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and their valiant and honorable Resistance and response to Israeli occupation assassinating several freedom fighters in the towns of Ain Baal and Shehabiya in Southern Lebanon.

Following the direct targeting from Lebanon, Al Mayadeen's camera caught clouds of smoke rising in Arab Al-Aramsha.
