A missile strike from the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, under the banner of continued support for Gaza and in defense of Lebanon, targeted Tel Aviv and its suburbs on Sunday, with its missiles striking several areas, causing significant damage and injuries among the settlers.
The missiles forced around 4 million Israeli settlers to seek shelter — while the strike inflicted severe damage to approximately 40 vehicles in Petah Tikva, in eastern Tel Aviv, where several settlers were reported injured.
Israeli media outlets also confirmed a missile hitting Lydd in the central region, with reports indicating a rocket impact in the settlement of Shfayim, near Herzliya, where a building was directly hit. Additionally, five rockets struck the settlements of Sharon and Gush Dan.
Amid Hezbollah’s attack on Tel Aviv, Israeli Channel 12 confirmed that Hezbollah had created a security belt extending through "Israel", reaching the Haifa area, the Bay of Haifa, and the central Sharon region.
In turn, Israeli channel Kan described Hezbollah’s fire towards the Israeli occupation on Sunday as "absolutely unusual," noting that the volume of the strike, by the early evening hours, was "three times as much," with the missiles spreading across northern "Israel" and deep into its center and beyond.
Israeli media outlets also pointed out that Hezbollah had "threatened and implemented... Beirut’s bombing will be met with bombing in Gush Dan and Haifa," adding that "every time Yisrael Katz boasts and makes a baseless statement, the direct result is another wave of missiles, increasing in intensity from Hezbollah.”
According to Israeli media, more than 250 rockets from Lebanon targeted the Israeli occupation in the center and north since Sunday morning, with expectations that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would hold a discussion on ceasefire negotiations with Lebanon in the evening, following the strike on Tel Aviv.
Complex ops against military targets in Tel Aviv, Glilot, and Asdod naval bases
Hezbollah announced the execution of several operations toward Tel Aviv and its suburbs, using volleys of advanced missiles and precision drones.
In details released by the military media of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, the fighters carried out a complex operation targeting a military facility in Tel Aviv with a volley of advanced missiles and a swarm of precision drones.
The operation, launched by Hezbollah at 6:30 AM local time on Sunday, accurately achieved its objectives and was in response to the Israeli occupation's targeting of Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, and the ongoing massacres against civilians, and in continued support of the Resistance in the Gaza Strip.
In another operation, Hezbollah targeted the Glilot base with a volley of missiles at 1:00 PM. It is important to remember that Glilot is the headquarters of the Israeli occupation's military intelligence Unit 8200, located in the suburbs of Tel Aviv, 110 kilometers from the Blue Line.
Furthermore, the Resistance launched its first-ever drone attack at 9:00 AM on the Asdod naval base, where the drones accurately struck their intended targets. The base is located 150 kilometers from the border area.
The military media also reported another operation carried out by Hezbollah two days prior, in which it successfully targeted the Blumachim base, located south of Tel Aviv, 140 kilometers from the Lebanese-Palestinian border.
This base is a key facility for the Israeli occupation's Air Force, housing fleets of UAVs, and military helicopters, as well as a military research center and the Arrow air and missile defense system.
These operations are part of the Khaybar series of operations, under the slogan of "Labbayka ya Nasrallah" (At your service, O' Nasrallah) which Hezbollah initiated on October 1, 2024. These operations targeted strategic sites as far as 150 kilometers deep, including the Asdod base.
They also serve to support the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, providing assistance to their Resistance, and defending Lebanon and its people.
