    A screengrab from Episode 3 of the Hoopoe series (Military Media of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon)

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah published Wednesday evening a new episode of its Hoopoe series, revealing new footage its drone filmed of potential Israeli targets in occupied Palestinian territories before safely returning to Lebanese soil, undetected by Israeli air defenses.

The latest episode showed swathes of locations in the Haifa-Carmel area, a strategic high point that serves as the first line of defense for the Gush Dan area concerning air defense.

According to the Islamic Resistance, the area houses several military facilities positioned within a surrounding civilian environment, including industrial, tourism, and scientific facilities of significant importance.

It is noteworthy that Hezbollah's rockets have already reached some of the locations in the Haifa-Carmel area. Just on Tuesday, the Islamic Resistance released scenes from its fighters targeting the Carmel and 7200 bases south of the occupied city of Haifa with rocket salvos and one-way drones.

The new revelation comes at a sensitive time, especially amid an ongoing Israeli aggression across Lebanon, especially the country's southern and eastern regions, as well as Beirut's Southern Suburb, which has so far killed 2,141 people and injured 10,099 others, according to the latest statistics from the Lebanese Ministry of Health.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah's fighters continue to inflict heavy casualties on Israeli troops attempting to infiltrate Lebanese towns from occupied Palestinian territories since "Israel" announced a ground incursion over a week ago, despite Israeli officials claiming that the group's capabilities have been reduced during this round of confrontation.
