The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced Sunday a new series of operations carried out by its fighters against Israeli military sites and soldiers along the border with occupied Palestine.

The operations began at 08:35 AM with the successful destruction of surveillance equipment at the Metula site, using appropriate weaponry.

Following this, at 10:10 AM, the resistance targeted a gathering of Israeli soldiers in the Shtula forest with rocket fire, resulting in a direct hit.

Hezbollah has also conducted two operations in response to two Israeli aggressions earlier today, one of which targeted al-Abbasiya, and resulted in 17 injuries, including women and children.

In the first operation in response to an Israeli assassination in the town of Baraachit, the Resistance launched an aerial attack using swarms of drones on a newly established gathering of Israeli soldiers in northern Abirim, striking their targets with precision.

Additionally, in response to Israeli attacks on southern villages, particularly in the town of Al-Abbasiya, the Resistance fighters shelled the Kiryat Shmona settlement with a barrage of Katyusha rockets.

Israeli Channel 12 confirmed that there were direct hits in the settlement as a result of rockets launched from southern Lebanon, including near a bus station, resulting in a fire.

Kiryat Shmona Mayor Avichai Stern asked settlers to remain near protected areas until further notice.

'Ground incursion'

Hezbollah's continued operations come as the Resistance is set to retaliate for the Israeli assassination of one of its top leaders, Sayyed Fouad Shokor, and the killing of five civilians; three women and two children, in a targeted strike on a residential building in Beirut's southern suburbs earlier this month.

Meanwhile, "Israel," the United States, and their regional and international allies and proxies are still speculating the nature and scope of Hezbollah's response, which also coincides with the Iranian retaliation.

Israeli Northern Command officers have raised alarms over a growing threat of a potential ground incursion by Hezbollah along the northern border of occupied Palestine. According to a report by the Israeli news outlet Walla, the officers described the threat as "more realistic than ever before."

The officers highlighted that Hezbollah's elite Radwan Force remains capable of launching a coordinated attack, including attempts to infiltrate Israeli settlements or military positions.

They emphasized that those who believe Hezbollah is not training to breach the northern border are "mistaken and delusional." The officers urged that everyone should operate under the assumption that Hezbollah possesses the capability to infiltrate, plant their flag in a settlement or military post, and set buildings ablaze.
