Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported today that a target in the "Kiryat Shmona" barracks was hit by strikes from Lebanon. 

Israeli media revealed that a drone launched from Lebanon hit an Israeli occupation military post in the "Kiryat Shmona" settlement. 

It added that two anti-tank missiles also launched from Lebanon toward the occupied north caused significant damage.

The head of the Israeli occupation Regional Council in Upper al-Jalil, Giora Zaltz, stated that in 30 minutes only, two anti-tank missiles targeted the area hitting a settlement unit in "Kfar Yuval" and "Kiryat Shmona".

He further announced that roads in "Beit Hillel" and the Industrial area in the "Kiryat Shmona" settlement were closed until further notice. 

Israeli occupation dreads war with Hezbollah

The former chief of the Israeli anti-air force, Zvika Haimovich, stated that a war on the northern front would have a different intensity from what the Israelis witnessed in the first few weeks in Gaza. 

Elaborating on the infiltration of Hezbollah drones across the occupied northern border, he stressed that there was no need for the last two incidents in the "Arbil" and Akka regions to prove that the Israeli anti-air system is weak. He added that there is "a common fight against a common enemy," but this is the first time that the Israelis get to see how strong this enemy is.

Israeli media reported today that the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah has been building its vast arsenal of precise missiles over the past years, which Israeli researchers warned about, predicting that Hezbollah might use these missiles to engage with targets in Haifa Bay. 

The researchers elaborated that from the operational sense when Hezbollah intends on a wide-range engagement on the Lebanese-Palestinian border, it will do so using short-range missiles as causing critical damage from such an attack would not need high-precision weapons.

Israeli anti-air motto: intercept 1, miss at least 13 others

The total number of operations launched by Hezbollah yesterday against the Israeli occupation as a response to Israeli attacks on South Lebanon and in support of the Palestinian people and their resistance was 13 in less than 24 hours. 

In one of its operations yesterday, Hezbollah targeted for the first time the "Matzuva" settlement using Katyusha missiles mainly as a response to the Majdal Zoun Israeli attack. 

The above-mentioned settlement is 3 kilometers away from the Lebanese border in the western sector and hosts a steel factory, touristic locations, a military barrack, a shooting range, a theatre, and shopping stores. 

In parallel, Hezbollah also engaged a gathering of Israeli troops in the "Avivim" settlement with appropriate weapons for the second time today, resulting in death and injury among the IOF troops. 

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon also targeted "Hadab Yaroun" with two Burkan rockets, achieving a direct hit.
