BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

The fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon—Hezbollah successfully confronted an attempt by Israeli occupation forces to advance at Fatima Gate in South Lebanon at 10:15 am on Thursday morning, using artillery shells.

Under the "permitted to publish" clause, Israeli media reported the deaths of two additional soldiers from the Sayeret Golani unit, who were killed by an anti-tank missile during confrontations with Hezbollah. The reports also noted that seven other soldiers were seriously injured during the confrontations.

This brings the total number of casualties suffered by the Israeli army since the beginning of their attempted incursion to ten, as they acknowledged on Wednesday the deaths of eight soldiers along the southern Lebanon border, including two captains.

The toll followed a tightly coordinated ambush by the Resistance on Wednesday, involving elite soldiers who attempted to infiltrate the town of Odeisseh from the direction of Khallet al-Mahafer. The ambush came after the Resistance had detected Israeli recon troop movement on Tuesday morning.

This marked the first attempt by Israeli forces to infiltrate southern Lebanon since the Israeli army announced the commencement of a ground invasion in the area overnight Monday.

Hezbollah bombs Tiberias and targets enemy gatherings 

In solidarity with the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and in support of their Resistance, as well as in defense of Lebanon and its citizens, Islamic Resistance fighters launched a salvo of rockets at the occupied city of Tiberias at 11:40 am on Thursday, in response to the brutal Israeli invasion of cities, villages, and civilian areas.

Since morning, the Resistance has executed multiple attacks on gatherings of occupation forces. At 12:20, they announced a successful rocket salvo aimed at Israeli forces in the Sa'sa settlement.

Earlier, at 11:30 am, the Resistance targeted a movement of Israeli occupation forces at the al-Raheb site with artillery shells, achieving direct hits. In a simultaneous effort, they also launched another rocket salvo at a gathering of occupation forces near the Admit settlement.

It also announced in a statement that its fighters targeted, at 11:00 this morning, a gathering of Israeli occupation forces in the vicinity of the al-Raheb site with two Burkan missiles. 

At 10:45, the Resistance launched a missile salvo at a gathering of Israeli enemy forces located between Shtula and al-Raheb.

Earlier, at 9:30, they also targeted a gathering of Israeli enemy forces in the settlement of Yaroun with a rocket salvo. Simultaneously, another rocket salvo was directed at a gathering of Occupation forces in the Misgav Am forest.

At 9:15, a gathering of occupation forces in the Ramim barracks was targeted with a salvo of Falaq missiles, and another gathering in the Kfar Giladi settlement was targeted with a Falaq missile barrage.

This morning, the Resistance targeted a gathering of Israeli occupation forces at the Hanita site with artillery shells, achieving precise hits. They also struck movements of occupation forces in the Misgav Am settlement with a rocket salvo, successfully achieving a direct hit.
