An Israeli soldier was killed, and another was severely injured in the Israeli settlement of "Shtula" in northern occupied Palestine due to a barrage of missiles launched by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, the Israeli occupation forces admitted on Friday.
The Israeli Rambam hospital in occupied Haifa announced that it had received a soldier who was in critical condition after he was injured in the occupied Palestinian-Lebanese border area.
The Israeli occupation has thus far announced that 12 Israelis have perished on the northern borders since the start of the Resistance's operations on October 8. However, the Resistance's figures indicate that the number is much higher.
The head of the local council in the Upper al-Jalil reported that several buildings were damaged in the "Menara" settlement after the Resistance launched missiles at the location.

Israeli media revealed Thursday that 86 out of 155 housing units were destroyed in the "Menara" settlement alone, as a result of the attacks carried out by Hezbollah.
Moreover, they pointed out that anger was mounting in that settlement over the occupation government’s performance, stating that "half the houses are demolished, and there is no place to return to."
Hezbollah announced earlier in the day that it had carried out seven operations, targeting Israeli sites and forces along the Lebanese border with occupied Palestine.
In a statement, Hezbollah announced the targeting of the "Kiryat Shmona" Israeli settlement (occupied Palestinian town of al-Khalisa) with a barrage of Grad rockets, confirming direct hits.
Moreover, the Resistance group announced the targeting of the vicinity of the "Biranit" Barracks with multiple rockets, noting that intended targets were hit.
Additionally, the Resistance targeted Israeli occupation forces' gathering centers in the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms with rocket and artillery weapons, confirming direct casualties.
A newly established military outpost, also in the occupied Shebaa Farms, was targeted with three attack drones, stating that all targets were directly hit and destroyed.
Furthermore, Islamic Resistance fighters targeted the al-Jirdah military site with appropriate weapons, as per the movement's statement.
Hezbollah attacks Israeli command center
Moreover, the Israeli occupation forces attacked an Israeli command and control center near the Israeli 430 checkpoint opposite the Lebanese border town of Kfar Kila, with the military media saying several casualties were confirmed.
Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricus, the international spokesman for the Israeli occupation military, highlighted that the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, has carried out more than 1,000 attacks against "Israel" since October 7, Jonathan Spyer wrote in a report published in The Wall Street Journal.
Spyer mentioned that Hezbollah seeks to maintain a controlled second front to aid its allies in the south, in reference to the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza.
"We see a steady escalation in terms of the range and variety of munitions being launched by Hezbollah at Israel," Conricus told foreign journalists at a briefing in Kibbutz "Rosh Hanikra" in northern occupied Palestine on December 18.
"We can do the same, if we need to, against Hezbollah that we are doing against Hamas in the south. This may be the scenario that we will need to implement," the Israeli spokesperson warned.
Spyer wrote, "Ben, a reservist squad commander in the airborne infantry, laughed when I asked him about the possibility of a northern war."
"It’s a myth that Israel might open a front in the north," the Israeli commander was quoted as saying, "because there’s already a front open."
