Israeli Security Minister Yoav Galant, who once threatened to set back Lebanon to the Stone Age, now finds himself in a reversed situation, the head of the "Margaliot" council explained on Thursday.

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

These remarks follow Israeli media reports on a blackout experienced in several settlements in al-Jalil Pandhandle, including "Kiryat Shmona", "Menara", "Miskav Am", and "Margeliot". The cut experienced in the settlements comes after Lebanese Resistance rockets impacted several points in occupied territories, including electrical infrastructure.

Earlier, the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon said that its fighters launched tens of rockets toward the settlement at 4:00 pm on Thursday, in response to an Israeli strike that targeted a civil defense center of the Islamic Health Society in Hanin, South Lebanon in which two members of the humanitarian non-governmental organization (NGO) were martyred while others were wounded. 

It was later revealed that two paramedics, Ali Mahmoud al-Sheikh Ali and Sajed Ramzi Qassem were martyred as the result of the Israeli aggression.

Hezbollah's response to the attack led to at least seven casualties in "Kiryat Shmona", as reported by Israeli media outlets. The Resistance reiterated its commitment to respond swiftly to any Israeli violation against civilians in Lebanese territories.

The Resistance executed another eight operations on the same day, confirming casualties among enemy soldiers in two.
