Israeli media on Sunday confirmed that Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has been pursuing a goal since the beginning of the war to "blind Israeli systems in the northern region."

Military affairs analyst Noam Amir, speaking on Israeli Channel 14, conveyed considerable unease within the Israeli occupation forces, especially in the aftermath of Hezbollah's targeting of the "Meron" Air Force base.

The Israeli analyst highlighted that the Israeli occupation is deliberately hiding the extent of the damage suffered by the intelligence system at the "Meron" Air Force base yesterday.

"Meron" base entered the long list of Israeli targets struck by the Resistance in Northern Occupied #Palestine.

Here's all you need to know about the base which was struck today with 62 rockets and missiles by the Lebanese Resistance.

Amir emphasized that the IOF have opted to withhold information about the damage done to "Meron" to prevent providing Hezbollah with specific details regarding the outcome of the attack.

Israeli media expressed concern over the Resistance's targeting of the "Meron" base, labeling it a "high-level" action. The apprehension arises from Hezbollah's possession of detailed information about strategically important locations, as highlighted in the media commentary.

Earlier on Saturday, the Israeli Walla! news website said that Hezbollah's initial response to the assassination of Palestinian Resistance leader martyr al-Arouri was only a "trailer" of what would happen if the party's "multidimensional threats expand."

A hub for Israeli electronic warfare

This attack on "Meron" marked the first time that the base, a strategic center for the entire Israeli entity, and a primary intelligence and military command hub on the northern front, was targeted during the ongoing escalations between the Resistance and the occupation's army.

Located just 8 kilometers from Lebanon's southern border, "Meron" Base overlooks the Lebanese towns of Rmeish, Yaroun, and Maroun al-Ras in the central sector. It occupies the summit of Mount Jarmaq in northern occupied Palestine, making it the highest peak within the occupied territories.

According to the Resistance statement released today, "Meron" primarily serves as an aerial surveillance center.

It is the sole facility responsible for managing and controlling air operations toward Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, and Cyprus, as well as the northern part of the eastern Mediterranean Sea basin. Moreover, this base acts as a central hub for electronic warfare interference in the mentioned directions, staffed by a significant number of elite Israeli officers and soldiers.
