The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced on Saturday conducting a range of operations against Israeli military bases, sites, and forces across the Lebanese-Palestinian border as the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza marks its 183rd day.

Hezbollah said in a statement that the operations come in "in support of our steadfast Palestinian people in Gaza and their brave and honorable Resistance and in response to the Israeli attacks on the resolute southern Lebanese villages and towns and civilian homes."

On their part, Israeli occupation forces said that a surface-to-air missile was launched toward an Israeli Air Force unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in Lebanese airspace, which hit and downed it. The IOF said that the incident is being investigated.

The battles to continue until Gaza is victorious

On Friday, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, saluted the Resistance fighters on the Lebanese front, stressing that they were "at the highest level of readiness, morale is high, and the momentum is great."

"The achievements of this battle, of which the South Lebanon front is a part, will benefit all of Lebanon," Sayyed Nasrallah said, noting that it would bless its sovereignty on land, in the sea, and in the air.

"Lebanon is in a position of strength, and we regret that there are those who are threatening war and setting dates for it," he added.

Hezbollah's leader also affirmed that "the Resistance in Lebanon does not fear war, and it is fully prepared for any confrontation [...] we have not yet used our main weapons thus far."

"If they want war, we welcome them with open arms," Sayyed Nasrallah said. "The enemy knows what war with Lebanon means."

He added, "We are in the midst of a battle in South Lebanon in which we are offering the best of our youth. It is a battle based on jihadist ethics and loyalty, and we will not hesitate."

Sayyed Nasrallah concluded by saying, "We will continue the battle until the resistance and Gaza emerge victorious."
