The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, conducted another series of operations, responding to Israeli aggression on Lebanon's Bekaa, and supporting the Palestinian people and their Resistance on Sunday.
In the first operation, Hezbollah fighters launched dozens of rockets and artillery shells at the "Kela" military site, in response to the Israeli attack on the Bekaa Valley. The Israeli raid on the Bekaa Valley came against the backdrop of a Hezbollah air defense operation, in which an Israeli Hermes 900 multirole drone was downed over Lebanese territories.
As for Hezbollah's operation on Sunday morning, the "Kela" Barracks hosts the headquarters of the Israeli Air Defense Force.
At 1:45 pm (local time), Hezbollah artillery units targeted a newly established Israeli artillery position in the vicinity of the Manara military site.

Later in the afternoon, at 4:10 pm, Hezbollah's Unmanned Air Force attacked a grouping of Israeli armored and infantry forces, located behind the al-Sumaqah military site in the Israeli-occupied Lebanese Kfar Chouba Hills via a suicide drone, dealing a precise hit to the targets.
On Sunday night, Hezbollah attacked the Zebdine Barracks in the Israeli-occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms, near the aforementioned operations, with unspecified "rocket weapons".
Hezbollah also mourned its fighter, Abed al-Amir Halawi, "Ali al-Rida", from the border town of Kfar Kila, in South Lebanon. Ali al-Rida was martyred on the path to al-Quds while conducting his resistance duties.
On the other hand, the Israeli aggression against Lebanon continues as the towns of Maroun al-Ras, Aitaroun, and Yaroun were targeted by Israeli artillery fire on Sunday.
Earlier, Hezbollah published early on Sunday footage of its fighters shooting down a Hermes 900 multirole drone that was violating Lebanon's airspace on Saturday.
