Prior to targeting the Summaqa site, Hezbollah executed a concentrated fire assault from a short distance using guided missiles and artillery shells. This attack targeted the Ramia site, its garrison, equipment, and Israeli soldiers' positions, achieving direct hits.
New tactics in play
Commenting on these developments, Al Mayadeen's analyst on Lebanese and resistance affairs, Abbas Fneish, noted that Hezbollah's strikes in the Ramia operation were remarkably close, ranging between 100 to 150 meters, a deliberate tactic.
In an interview with Al Mayadeen, Fneish explained that multiple specialties were involved in the attack, indicating varied support ranges from distant to medium and close-range engagements. He emphasized that the meticulous study of the operation's environment was fundamental, granting Hezbollah the ability to execute such actions while discussing the unique characteristics and advantages of the Israeli positions.
Fneish connected the Ramia operation to the recent operations in Malikiya on May 26 and 27, highlighting the detailed planning and distinct approach of the May 26 operation, which involved prolonged surveillance and subsequent targeting of incoming vehicles.
The morning of May 27 saw a second phase of the attack, featuring a synchronized fire assault with rockets and artillery, alongside an aerial offensive using attack drones.
He stressed that Hezbollah's operations, executed within its formations, signal that the Resistance is capable of surprising maneuvers, potentially revealing new tactics or more significant actions.
This also serves as a message that Hezbollah is prepared and present in unexpected locations, countering Israeli claims of having pushed the group away from the border.
Fneish also pointed out that between May 20-26, Hezbollah conducted 76 military operations, which included targeting 10 command centers, 4 military vehicles, and 15 settlement units.
'Israel' lost al-Jalil
The former General Director of former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's office, Shimon Sheves, said that "Israel" has clearly lost occupied al-Jalil, adding that "The simple truth must be said: Israel's security belt with Lebanon now passes through the Amiad-Acre line."
