Hezbollah releases footage of strike on Israeli APC
In the released footage, Hezbollah fighters destroy an Israeli armored vehicle, although the Resistance party did not confirm whether the APC hosted soldiers.
Hezbollah targeted and destroyed an Israeli Zelda M113 Armored Personnel Carrier in al-Sadah site located to the west of the southern Lebanese town of Salha, the Resistance movement confirmed late on Tuesday.
Hezbollah's fighters targeted the armored vehicle following Israeli occupation forces' targeting of several of its observation sites in Lebanon.

Salha is one of the Seven Villages, which are seven Lebanese villages occupied by the Israeli occupation and claimed as part of its own after their mandate was handed from the French to the British colonial power.
The people who were originally from these villages were expelled from them, and many of them sought refuge in other areas of South Lebanon after they were given Lebanese citizenship in the early 20th century.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported, citing a source familiar with the matter, that the Israeli occupation was bombing the vicinity of al-Naqoura, al-Dhayra, and Yaroun in Southern Lebanon, while also launching three incendiary bombs toward the Kfar Chouba Heights and Mari.
Some unconfirmed reports suggest that the Israeli occupation forces were using the internationally prohibited white phosphorus bombs in southern Lebanon.

The Israeli occupation had struck the Resistance's observation point on Monday, which led to the martyrdom of three Hezbollah fighters.
Hezbollah announced yesterday that it targeted two sensitive Israeli occupation military sites in northern occupied Palestine as an initial response.
In a statement, Hezbollah said it targeted "Biranit" barracks, which is the command center of the Galilee Division, and the "Avivim" military base, the command center for a battalion affiliated with the Western Brigade.
The operation was carried out using guided missiles and mortar shells, confirming direct hits to the military sites.
Several salvoes of rockets, numbering at least 15, were launched from Lebanon toward northern occupied Palestine and targeted the Israeli occupation, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported Tuesday.
Sirens were sounded in "Metzuba", "Lehman", "Betzet", "Shlomi", and Western al-Jalil, in addition to a number of other settlements in northern occupied Palestine, Israeli media reported.
Al-Qassam Brigades claimed responsibility for the rockets launched from Lebanon toward Western al-Jalil.
