The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah conducted a series of operations in support of the Palestinian people and in response to Israeli aggressions on Lebanese territories. 

In an initial operation on Saturday, Hezbollah responded to an Israeli aggression on the Lebanese town of Kfour in the al-Nabatiyeh governorate. Israeli occupation forces struck a residential area in the Kfour Valley, which martyred 10 people and injured another five civilians, most of whom are Syrian nationals. 

Hezbollah fired salvos of Grad-type rocket artillery shells at the Ayelet HaShahar settlement in Israeli-occupied northern Palestinian territories. This is the first time that Hezbollah has targeted the settlement since it launched its military support campaign on October 8, 2023. 

The Resistance also launched two FPV drones toward the Israeli al-Marj military site. The miniature explosive-laden drones targeted a position manned by Israeli occupation troops, killing and injuring those present at the point of the attack. 

Hezbollah's Military Media Unit said that the attack was executed at 11:15 am (local time). 

The Resistance also attacked the al-Summaqah military site in the Israeli-occupied Lebanese Kfar Chouba Hills, dealing hits to the intended targets. Artillery units launched a simultaneous attack on the Roueisat al-Aalam military site at 5:00 pm. 

20 minutes later, Hezbollah's artillery units targeted the Hadab Yaroun military site and dealt direct hits to the intended targets. 

The Resistance launched several FPV drones, this time targeting Israeli spyware installed on the Jal al-Alam military site, destroying the aforementioned hardware. 

Artillery units then targeted a grouping of Israeli occupation soldiers in the outskirts of the Shtula settlement. 

Hezbollah also mourned its fighter, martyr Hussein Ibrahim Kassab, "Malak", on the path of al-Quds. Martyr Kassab was born in the town of Teir Dibba in 1989 and was a resident of the Burj al-Shamali in South Lebanon.

Hezbollah releases footage of strategic site, asserting its deterrent capabilities

Earlier on Friday, Israeli media outlets commented on Hezbollah's recent video revealing its Imad 4 underground missile facility. In detail, the Israeli news website Kipa stated that "from inside a huge tunnel, Hezbollah continues its psychological warfare, revealing an advanced missile system with a message to Israel."

The Israeli media questioned the absence of any official Israeli response to the footage broadcast by Hezbollah.

"Hezbollah reveals an underground missile city equipped with ready-to-launch missiles, yet Israeli security officials and senior leaders have not officially commented," the site Mivzak Live noted.

It indicated that "this video comes against the backdrop of rising regional tensions and is intended to deter Israel and increase pressure on the international community."

Additionally, Israeli media warned of the footage, emphasizing that the video released by Hezbollah today only reveals a small fraction of its "immense capabilities".

They added that the purpose of the video "is to pressure Israel into reaching an agreement" that imposes no restrictions on the Lebanese group.

One Israeli media platform noted that given that the facility bears the name Imad 4, the Lebanese group likely has at least three other similar underground cities.

On his part, Menachem Kolodetsky, an editor at the Hamadash news website, considered that the "propaganda video released by Hezbollah reveals only a tiny fraction of its immense capabilities and is intended to pressure Israel into closing a reckless deal that would allow Hezbollah to launch an attack on the northern border at a time of its own choice."
