The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah attacked groupings of Israeli occupation troops, Israeli military sites, and buildings in settlements appropriated for military use across northern occupied territories on Friday. 

Hezbollah fighters attacked a grouping of Israeli occupation forces positioned near the Metulla military site, dealing confirmed hits to the intended targets at 9:40 am (local time). 

The Resistance also responded to a series of Israeli strikes on Lebanese towns, attacking the 769th Territorial Brigade's headquarters in Kiryat Shmona, via a barrage of Grad-type rockets, responding to a strike on the town of Hanaouay.

Hezbollah's Unammed Air Force launched a swarm of suicide drones at the headquarters of one of the 300th Territorial Brigade's battalions in the coastal Liman settlement. The drones impacted the positions of Israeli officers and soldiers, causing confirmed casualties among them. The Islamic Resistance said that the attack came in response to Israeli strikes that targeted al-Naqoura and Hanaouay.

Responding to strikes on Kfar Kila and Aita al-Shaab, Hezbollah fighters attacked several buildings used by occupation forces in Kiryat Shmona, dealing a direct hit to the targets. 

The Resistance launched yet another operation in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanese towns, targeting a building in the Manara settlement. Another building was attacked in the same settlement at a later time.
