Tzrifin base

At noon, the Resistance's forces fired multiple Fateh-110 SRBMs at the Tzrifin military base, which was preceded by a salvo of rockets, aimed at depleting Israeli air defenses. 

The Tzrifin is a huge base to the southeast of Tel Aviv and just south of the Israeli regime's largest airport, the Ben Gurion Airport. Sirens sounded across city settlements in the Gush Dan Metropolitan area, at the time of the attack, while shrapnel from one of the rockets severely damaged a car and one rocket impacted a parking lot in the Ben Gurion Airport. 

Hezbollah released footage showing the targeting of the Israeli military base Tzrifin, located south of Tel Aviv, with Fateh 110 missiles.

According to Hezbollah's Military Media Unit, the Tzrifin base hosts training camps, military schools, and the military spokesperson's unit. The large base is also located 130km south of the Lebanese-Palestinian border. 

Hezbollah said this operation came as part of the "Khaybar series" of operations, which aims to respond to the Israeli aggression that killed civilians and commanders in Lebanon. 

In line with the same series of attacks, Hezbollah's Unmanned Air Force launched three separate drone attacks as follows:

Bilu Camp

The first targeted the Bilu Camp, a base that serves as the headquarters for the 55th Reserve Brigade of the 98th Paratroopers Division, as well as other units. The base is located just north of the Tel Nof Air Base, in Gush Dan. 

At 6:00 pm, Hezbollah launched a swarm of drones at the camp, for the first time since confrontations ensued on October 8 last year, dealing precise hits to the intended targets.

On Wednesday morning, Hezbollah fighters worked on targeting the groupings and positioned Israeli occupation forces in the Metulla settlement, opposite the border town of Kfar Kila. 

After confronting Israeli invasions into nearby towns and the subsequent withdrawal of forces, Hezbollah fighters took the fight, once again, to the border settlements. 

In one direct attack, at 10:40 am, Hezbollah fighters fired an anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) at an Israeli Merkava tank in the Metulla settlement, destroying it and killing and injuring its crew members. 

Just five minutes later, another ATGM struck an Israeli position in the same settlement. The Military Media Unit revealed that Hezbollah fighters had been monitoring the movements of occupation forces in the area, before firing an ATGM at a building utilized by Israeli troops. 

The ATGM struck the building, achieving a direct hit and killing and injuring the troops inside it.
