The Military Media of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah on Tuesday broadcast the second episode of the Hoopoe series, featuring high-resolution aerial reconnaissance footage of intelligence bases, command centers, and camps belonging to the Israeli occupation forces in the occupied Syrian Golan.

The 10-minute video showcased footage of six strategic electronic reconnaissance sites in the occupied Syrian Golan; the western and eastern Shlagim sites, the Astra site, the Yisraeli site, the Avital site, and the Tel Fares site.

According to the information provided in the video, these Israeli sites are tasked with espionage, guidance, long-range monitoring, and electronic attacks involving jamming and deception.

Moreover, the sites contain key nodes for communications and data exchange and house forces from the 8200 and 9900 units, as well as the electronic warfare unit.

Additionally, the six Israeli sites include forces responsible for securing the bases, their equipment, and the border area.

It is noteworthy that the intelligence and early warning bases filmed by Hezbollah's Hoopoe are referred to as "the eyes of the state of Israel," and the footage released included multiple scans of these sites.

The video also showcased new points and roads for Israeli forces outside the aforementioned sites, established during Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, along with fortified shelters for soldiers.

Experts have previously explained to Al Mayadeen that the missile illustrated next to the target card has guiding fins at its front, symbolizing a precise missile, which is a message Hezbollah intended to convey in the video.

Hezbollah's video concluded with the word "to be continued," followed by additional aerial reconnaissance footage from Safed and Tabarayya, to be featured in the next episode of the series.

This episode of the Hoopoe follows the first nine-minute-and-a-half episode, titled "This is what the Hoopoe came back with," in which the Military Media of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon released footage showing its reconnaissance drones flying over swathes of occupied Palestinian land, including Kiryat Shmona, Nahariya, Safad, Karmiel, Afula, all the way to Haifa and its port.

The published footage included intelligence about Israeli sites inside occupied Palestine and clearly showed that the drone arrived at the port of Haifa intact. Hezbollah's drones brought back footage and information about sensitive sites they captured over Haifa starting with the port itself to oil refineries and military factories, not to mention the locations of military battleships and important economic hubs in the port.

Five days later, Hezbollah released a video showing vital Israeli targets only known to the occupation's security apparatus, suggesting that these sites would be targeted in case of a war against Lebanon.

The video included snippets of Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's speech, in which he warned the Israeli occupation that the Resistance would fight with no restraints or limits if war were imposed on Lebanon.
