The Israeli occupation forces launched their attack on Bint Jbeil at 11 pm targeting civilian homes in the center of the village.

Ibrahim Bazzi lived in Australia. He returned to Lebanon to take his wife back with him. Yesterday, they were martyred by the Israeli regime while staying at their residence in southern Lebanon. His brother was also killed in the attack.

This attack shows that the Israeli occupation continues to escalate its bombardment against Lebanese villages and civilians in southern Lebanon, carrying out its attacks by bombing the outskirts of Lebanese villages and towns adjacent to the border with occupied Palestine.

"With utmost pride and honour," the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah announced the martyrdom of one of its members, Ali Ahmad Bazzi (Qassem), from the city of Bint Jbeil in southern Lebanon.

بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
{مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلاً} - صَدَقَ الله العَليّ العَظِيم

Israeli casualties on the rise amid intensifying Hezbollah operations

From South Lebanon, Hezbollah has launched multiple attacks, in support of the Palestinian Resistance and the steadfast people in the Gaza Strip, at Israeli targets in northern occupied territories.

These consistently expanding attacks have completely shut down Israeli settler communities located at least 3.5 km deep into their occupation's line of withdrawal.

In one of its latest operations at 3:30 pm on Tuesday, Hezbollah Resistance fighters carried out an aerial attack on the Israeli occupation's recently established military command headquarters in the vicinity of the "Kiryat Shmona" settlement (occupied Palestinian town of al-Khalisa) using a kamikaze drone, resulting in confirmed casualties, as per the statement of the Islamic Resistance.

The Lebanese Resistance group simultaneously targeted the Israeli al-Baghdadi military site using appropriate weapons.
