The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced a series of operations against Israeli military sites and soldiers along the border with occupied Palestine.

Hezbollah said its operations were in support of the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and their brave and honorable Resistance and in response to the Israeli attacks and assassinations in Lebanon.

The operations came as follows:

  1. At 2:44 pm, Hezbollah fighters targeted the newly installed espionage equipment on a crane at the Hadab Yarin site with appropriate weapons, hitting it directly and destroying it.
  2. At 3:30 pm, the Islamic Resistance fighters targeted the espionage equipment installed at the newly established center for war collection and reconnaissance teams in the Metulla settlement with a guided missile, hitting it directly and destroying it.
  3. At 4:02 pm, the Resistance carried out two operations whereby its fighters bombarded the Israeli Birket Risha and al-Raheb sites with Burkan rockets, impacting the targets directly and causing a fire to break out at both sites.

Israeli media stated that Israeli air defenses failed to intercept two aerial targets over the settlements of Rosh Pina and Hatzor HaGlilit in northern occupied Palestine, where fires broke out, as also occurred in Metulla.

The media also mentioned that an Israeli first sergeant died from wounds sustained in a drone explosion in the northern occupied Syrian Golan on June 30.

In a related context, Hezbollah mourned its Resistance fighter Ali Jaafar Maatouk "Habib Maatouk", from the southern Lebanese town of Sir el-Gharbiyeh, who was martyred on the path to [liberate occupied] al-Quds.
