The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced on Sunday that it had targeted several Israeli occupation sites along the border with occupied Palestine, revealing the use of a new heavy rocket for the first time as part of its operations named "Jihad Mughniyeh", in tribute to the martyr Jihad Mughniyeh, son of renowned leader martyr Imad Mughniyeh.
The Resistance announced that its fighters targeted with anti-tank guided missiles the surveillance equipment at al-Malikiyah site at 7:35 pm, confirming a direct hit.
In that regard, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in South Lebanon reported direct gunfire from Lebanon toward the targeted site.
In a statement, the Islamic Resistance announced that its fighters targeted at 4:25 pm an Israeli military gathering near the Zebdine site in the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms with several "Jihad Mughniyeh" rockets, achieving direct hits.
At 2:10 pm, the Resistance targeted a military vehicle carrying surveillance equipment, as well as other technical equipment at the Hounin barracks (Ramim) using guided missiles, confirming the destruction of the vehicle and equipment.
Hezbollah documents its operations
Meanwhile, the Islamic Resistance released footage of the operation in which its fighters targeted sites and surveillance equipment belonging to the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) deployed near the southern Lebanese border.

Additionally, the Islamic Resistance documented the targeting of the Israeli Ramya site at the Lebanese-Palestinian border.
The Islamic Resistance also released footage from a previous operation by its fighters targeting a house where IOF soldiers were positioned in the Shtula settlement in northern occupied Palestine.
Resistance drones hit the Iron Dome platform in Beit Hillel
More significantly, the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon displayed a clip from an operation where it targeted an Iron Dome platform at the Israeli Beit Hillel base located in the heart of al-Jalil panhandle.
While there are several points to highlight in this operation, what was significant is that the Resistance utilized videos shared by Israeli settlers to locate Iron Dome platforms that were recently deployed or repositioned by Israeli occupation forces.

Following the release of that video, Hezbollah then published footage documenting the scene of the drones hitting their intended targets.
Additionally, the footage highlighted the significance of the target, noting that the Beit Hillel base is the headquarters of the IOF's 769th Territorial Brigade, Hiram, which serves under the 91st Galilee Division. Hezbollah's Military Media revealed that the Beit Hillel base hosts the 91st Division's mechanized combat engineering battalion and has recently included the 1st Infantry Golani Brigade's 51st Infantry Battalion, known as the "First Breachers."
Hezbollah's reconnaissance drone has also revealed that the base contains a helipad and four Iron Dome launchers.
Yesterday, the Resistance announced that its fighters targeted the Beit Hillel military base and newly established Iron Dome platforms using one-way drones, adding that "the drones hit the base and Iron Dome platforms directly and completely disabled some of them."
The statement said that its fighters launched another suicide drone to target a gathering of Israeli enemy officers and soldiers following the previous attack in the middle of the base. Despite the enemy's attempt to intercept it with an F-16 fighter jet and their failure to do so, the drone reached its target and struck it precisely.
Meanwhile, Israeli attacks on southern Lebanese villages and towns continue, with the occupation's aircraft launching two raids on the outskirts of Hebbariyeh and the area of al-Kharayeb on the outskirts of the town of Rachaya al-Fokhar, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent.
Our correspondent noted a significant decrease in Israeli attacks on southern villages and towns.
