The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah conducted a number of operations against Israeli occupation forces on Monday.
Initially, Hezbollah fighters fired unspecified "rocket weapons" at a grouping of Israeli soldiers near the Birannit Barracks, dealing direct hits to the intended targets.
At 10:50 am, Resistance fighters launched anti-tank guided missiles at the Israeli al-Raheb military sites, destroying spyware placed on the site.
Later on Monday afternoon, Hezbollah fighters fired artillery shells at the al-Summaqah military site in the occupied Lebanese Kfar Chouba Hills.
On the other hand, Israeli fighter jets, artillery, and drones launched aggressions on the towns of Meis al-Jabal, Marwahin, Kfar Kila, Kfar Hamam, Kfar Hamam, and Bint Jbeil.

Both men were killed in an Israeli drone strike that targeted them on the Khardali Road, which links border villages to the city of al-Nabatiyeh. In a show of defiance, and despite the fact that Kfar Kila has been subject to near-daily artillery shelling or strikes, citizens buried the two martyrs in the village's cemetery on Monday.
The two martyrs were filling up containers from a water spring, to later deliver them to the village. At this point, an Israeli drone directly fired a missile at them, which led to their martyrdom.
It is also worth noting that Najib Halawi was the father of Hezbollah martyr Mohammad Najib Halawi, the first fallen fighter from Kfar Kila in the Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood.
