The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah conducted a series of operations on Monday, responding to several Israeli aggressions on Lebanon, reaffirming the Resistance's support to Palestinians in Gaza.
The initial operation launched on Monday saw Hezbollah fighters launch a barrage of Grad-type rockets at the al-Baghdadi military site, to the southwest of Kiryat Shmona. The rocket attack came in response to an Israeli strike on Chaqra in South Lebanon.
Later on Monday afternoon, the Resistance launched two operations in a window of five minutes, the first of which attacked a position of Israeli occupation soldiers at the al-Raheb military site. Hezbollah fighters used anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) to conduct the operations at 3:15 pm (local time). The Resistance said that the operation also came in response to the aggression on Chaqra.
Five minutes later, Hezbollah fired unspecified weapons at the al-Malikiyah military site, targeting a spyware system that was recently installed on the site, dealing a direct hit to the intended target.
Hezbollah fighters also destroyed recently set-up hardware on the al-Karantina Hill, destroying it completely.
Notably, Hezbollah fighters also ambushed an Israeli Merkava tank on Monday, after monitoring the movements of Israeli forces at the al-Raheb military site.
The ambush was executed at 4:30 pm, in which Hezbollah fighters fired an ATGM at the Merkava tank as soon as it arrived at the ambush point. The Resistance confirmed that the ATGM directly impacted the tank.
Hezbollah fighters then launched three consecutive operations, in the context of the party's response to Israeli attacks on the town of Chaqra. At 5:30 pm, the Resistance destroyed several pieces of spyware and fortification installed in the al-Aabad military site.
A few minutes later, the Resistance destroyed the spyware on the Hadab Yarine military site.
At 6:30, the Resistance launched an attack on a grouping of Israeli occupation forces in the vicinity of the al-Raheb military site, dealing a direct hit to the intended targets.
