In a likely scenario of thousands of rockets falling on "Israel" and involving hours-long power outages, officials at the Israeli Electric Company, Noga, urge settlers to install emergency solar energy systems.

The electricity administration in the Israeli occupation, Noga, advised Israeli settlers to install solar energy systems on the roofs of houses for routine use, and also to supply them with electricity in emergency situations.

The head of the company, in an interview with the Israeli Channel 14, presented a scenario simulating an escalation with Lebanon, including power outages for hours in most settlements, suggesting that targeted strikes could lead to a complete electricity supply crisis.

The channel noted that Noga is allegedly "one of the most protected facilities in Israel" and is supposed to operate under difficult circumstances and allow continuous power supply throughout the days of the war, even in the worst-case scenarios.

Moreover, the channel added that the fall of tens of thousands of rockets, including precision rockets, would bring destruction to parts of "Israel", which is the most widespread scenario being envisioned in the Israeli security establishment regarding the war with Hezbollah.

On the other hand, the General Manager of Noga acknowledged that "Israel" cannot withstand hours of blackout, adding that it must prepare for the worst, "We do not know what Hezbollah is planning".

As for the Deputy General Manager of Operations at Noga, he discussed a contingency plan in case of electricity supply interruption, involving diesel-powered generators to maintain operations.

Amid ongoing Islamic Resistance operations in Lebanon targeting northern occupied Palestine, Israeli media reported power outages in various areas of the Nahariya settlement on March 5th, caused by a missile striking an electrical transformer, following a significant rocket barrage from Lebanon toward northern settlements.

Hezbollah bombing 'Israel' back to Stone Age: Israeli Media

Israeli media is mocking previous statements made by Israeli officials against Hezbollah, threatening the Lebanese Resistance of bombing Lebanon back to the Stone Age. 

In this context, Israeli newspaper Hadashot Bazaman reposted a video on March 16 published by Hezbollah's military media, adding a voiceover of several Israeli officials, prominently Security Minister Yoav Gallant, threatening Hezbollah of returning Lebanon to the Stone Age. The video featured a bold title asking "Who is taking who to the Stone Age?"

Gallant, who once threatened to set back Lebanon to the Stone Age, found himself in a reversed situation, the head of the "Margaliot" council explained back in January.

Last night, the Holy Family Latin Church in Gaza held #Easter Sunday mass in darkness due to the lack of electricity, a result of "Israel's" cutoff of fuel supply to the #GazaStrip.

The Israeli official, who heads the council responsible for a settlement located to the west of the settlement of "Kiryat Shmona", shed light on the blackout experienced in the colonial outpost, following a rocket attack launched by Hezbollah on the al-Jalil Panhandle.

"Our settlements have ultimately been left without electricity, and we ended up being reverted to the Stone Age," the Israeli official complained.
