The group's operations come 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 more than 1,200 people and displaced millions since September 23.
2,196 people have been killed since October of last year.
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 "limited ground operation" over a week ago, despite Israeli officials claiming that the group's capabilities have been reduced during this round of confrontation.
In a related context, the Military Media Unit in the Islamic Resistance published footage showing Hezbollah's fighters confronting Israeli occupation forces' infiltration attempts along the southern Lebanese border in the eastern sector.

20 Israeli soldiers injured within 24 hours on border with Lebanon
Israeli media reported Thursday that 22 Israeli soldiers were injured in 24 hours, 20 of them on the Lebanese border and two in the Gaza Strip.
The Ziv Medical Center in occupied Safad confirmed that it had received seven injured soldiers from battles with Hezbollah at the northern border with Lebanon.
Israeli media mentioned that four injuries were reported following the shelling that targeted the Karmiel area in Central al-Jalil, while an Israeli helicopter was directly hit in the Mays al-Jabal area while attempting to evacuate injuries, forcing Israeli ambulances to flee the scene of the incident.
Early Thursday morning, the Israeli occupation military admitted to the killing of one of its soldiers and the injury of another in ongoing battles at the Lebanese border.
The military announced that the soldier was from the 228th Brigade and that another soldier from the 5030th Battalion was seriously wounded in the same incident and was transferred to the hospital.
This brings the Israeli military's acknowledged death toll to 12 soldiers since the start of its announced ground incursion in southern Lebanon, although the Islamic Resistance's Operations Room confirmed that the occupation forces have suffered at least 35 fatalities and 200 injuries, including elite officers and soldiers.
On Wednesday, the Israeli Channel 12 reported that the senior advisor to Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich was injured during battles at the Lebanon border.
The Israeli military also confirmed that two soldiers from Unit 504 and another from Battalion 8207 were seriously injured in the battle in southern Lebanon.
