An Israeli settlement has reportedly turned into a "ghost town" after growing fears of Israelis that it could be hit by a Hezbollah rocket from Lebanon.

The northern settlement of "Rosh Hanikra" [occupied Ras al-Naqoura] had numerous abandoned vehicles and empty roads following the beginning of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. 

Mohammad Deif, Commander-in-Chief of al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, said that the operation was launched in response to the Israeli occupation's desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque, as well as multiple assaults against women in its courtyards. 

The IOF spokesperson confirmed that the death toll of IOF members had reached over 220, and there were 60 occupation soldiers that were captured and are being in the Gaza Strip.

Ynet, an Israeli news outlet, corroborated the Israeli death toll exceeding 1,300 and noted that Israeli captives held by the Resistance in the Gaza Strip exceeded 60, with more than 200 captives.

"Israel" has reinforced troops in villages close to the border with Lebanon for fear of Hezbollah missiles. Their fortifications did not stop settlers from fleeing the villages, however.

Ida Lannkri, a resident of the nearby settlement of "Shlomi", claimed she was still "shaking with fear" hours after an anti-tank rocket launched from Lebanon landed near a military base on Wednesday morning.

"There was a loud boom that set fire to all of the mountain," she recalled, detailing that she was escaping to the Red Sea coastal resort settlement of "Eilat."

The village's fuel station is currently one of the few businesses that has remained open, serving as the go-to store for the few remaining people.

Israel Ravid, 34, a gas station attendant, said his wife had already abandoned Shlomi with their children, explaining that he suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome following the 2006 war with Hezbollah.

Abu Hamza: Lebanon events sheer example of what is awaiting 'Israel'

The military spokesperson for Al-Quds Brigades - the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) - Abu Hamza revealed on Wednesday that the battle may soon expand to include the occupied Palestinian territories in 1948, stressing that the battle is no longer limited to the Gaza Strip.

In an audio speech regarding the developments of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, Abu Hamza said that other fronts may soon join in the battle.

He stressed that the scope of fire was expanding and that what the Israeli occupation witnessed in South Lebanon was merely a small example of what was awaiting the enemy, reassuring everyone that victory was just around the corner.

Addressing the Resistance in the West Bank, Abu Hamza called on the Jenin and Lions' Den brigades, as well as the Palestinians to engage in confrontations with the Israeli occupation.

Furthermore, the military spokesperson threatened the Israeli occupation, “We have come prepared for you outside Palestine just as we were inside Palestine, and the events that unfolded in the Gaza Envelope shall be mirrored in other battlegrounds.”
