BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

    The aftermath of the attack on "Beit Hillel" IOF base 

Israeli news reports on Monday acknowledged that the operation led by the Lebanese resistance on an IOF base in "Beit Hillel" in occupied upper Al-Jalil was exceptional by all standards.

Speaking to Israeli broadcaster Channel 13, Reserve Brigadier General Tzvika Haimovitch explained that the exceptional nature of the operation is owed to two reasons: first, the firing with a guided missile near the separation fence, and second, the depth of the target.

He added that the firing of anti-tank missiles at a range of approximately 3 kilometers indicates a significant Hezbollah presence near the separation fence.

Haimovitch also acknowledged the ongoing conflict on the northern front, noting that the intensity fluctuates based on events occurring on the southern front in the Gaza Strip. He stated that Hezbollah has resumed firing and reverted to its pre-ceasefire modus operandi since October 8.

On Sunday, the Lebanese resistance carried out an operation targeting the "Beit Hillel" occupation base, hitting an Israeli military vehicle.

The IOF sustained serious losses as a result of this operation, as the Israelis admitted to 11 injuries among their ranks.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent pointed out that the sensitive military site hosts an Iron Dome battery system and is located at the end of the runway of the "Kiryat Shmona" airport.

Hezbollah had previously targeted the "Beit Hillel" military base with Grad rockets in response to the Israeli-targeted killing of Al Mayadeen's crew in South Lebanon last month.

The Israeli strike resulted in the martyrdom of reporter Farah Omar and photojournalist Rabih Me'mari. Lebanese citizen Hussein Akil was collaborating with the crew at the time of the strike, which resulted in his martyrdom as well.

On the same day the operation was carried out, Channel 13 mentioned that "Hezbollah pledged that the moment Hamas stops firing, it will cease its firing as well" and will resume when the resistance in Gaza resumes, confirming that Hezbollah "unfortunately kept its word."

The Israeli channel further mentioned a heightened state of frustration among settlers in northern occupied Palestine due to the continuation of resistance operations in Lebanon.

🚨 New footage shows the Hezbollah ATGM strike targeting an israeli military vehicle at the IOF base in Beit Hillel.

The attack resulted in the injury of at least 11 israelis, and it was carried using an Iranian-made precision-guided missile.
