The Military Media of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah released on Wednesday aerial footage of the Israeli military airbase captured by its drones north of occupied Palestine on Tuesday, marking the third video of the series that it named, "This is what the Hoopoe came back with."

The special episode showed the Ramat David Airbase, the only Israeli military airbase in northern occupied Palestine, which is 46 kilometers from the Lebanese border.

The video captured by the Hoopoe drone, which successfully evaded Israeli surveillance and interception systems for the third time, showed all the facilities associated with the Ramat David airbase.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon has released the third episode of the "Hoopoe" series.

A source from #Hezbollah told #AlMayadeen that this footage, in its entirety, was captured yesterday, on Tuesday, July 23.

Among the most prominent revelations from the Hoopoe footage were the locations of Iron Dome platforms within the base, ammunition storage, squadron command centers and garages, preparation centers and technical sections, air navigation radar domes, maintenance sections, and fuel pods for fighter jets.

Elsewhere, the footage also showed a night scan of the Israeli airbase.

Hezbollah ended the special episode with the phrase "[Israel is] weaker than a spider's web," which the Lebanese Resistance group's Secretary-General, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, said at the celebration of the liberation of southern Lebanon from the Israeli occupation on May 25, 2000.
