Rely on Allah the Almighty
The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon's Military Media released a video titled "The basic principle... is to rely on Allah the Almighty."
In the released footage, three of Hezbollah's elite fighters are seen readying for battle, including an anti-armor specialist and a sniper wearing a ghillie suit. The fighters are seemingly stationed at a secret site, where the photo of late Hezbollah leader martyr Imad Mughniyeh, "Hajj Radwan", hangs.

Hajj Radwan was one of the group's founders and was one of its most prominent strategists who led the Resistance to liberate a major area of occupied Lebanese territories on May 25, 2000. Martyr Mughniyeh commanded Hezbollah's military and security apparatus at a later time, including the 2006 war on Lebanon, until he was assassinated on February 12, 2008, by Israeli and American intelligence agencies.
Before cutting into a scene where the fighters ready themselves to launch direct attacks on Israeli military assets, the voice of Hajj Radwan can be heard in the background. In an excerpt from an address, Mughniyeh tells Hezbollah fighters, "The basic principle is to rely on God Almighty," a message which has resonated with the group's members who have managed to secure victory against a superior enemy.

In the context of Hezbollah's exemplary military capabilities and their ongoing operations in northern occupied Palestine, the Israeli occupation government announced on Sunday that it intends to keep the Israeli settlers who were evacuated from settlements near the Palestinian-Lebanese border outside their settlements until June, while the time limit remains subject to extensions.
Israeli media outlets indicated that Israeli authorities will not allow settlers to return to their colonial outposts this coming summer. Unsubstantiated reports indicating that settlers will remain outside their settlements until September are also circulating on Israeli media platforms.
