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 and includes industrial, tourism, and scientific facilities of significant importance.
At the end of the video, Hezbollah displayed a message in Hebrew, translating to, "In the crosshairs."
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.
Israeli media reported on Wednesday that the Israeli occupation forces announced the injury of 38 of their soldiers in 24 hours along the northern front on the border between Lebanon and occupied Palestine.
The reports also revealed that Israeli occupation forces acknowledged the deaths of 11 soldiers and injuries to approximately 168 others since the start of "Israel's" "limited ground operation" along the northern front, which sought to invade Lebanese villages in yet another breach of sovereignty.
But the Islamic Resistance's Operations Room confirmed on Tuesday that Israeli forces have suffered significant casualties, with more than 35 soldiers killed and 200 wounded from the Israeli occupation forces' elite units.
