Lebanon's Hezbollah has conducted multiple operations against Israeli military sites in the northern part of the 1948 Israeli-occupied territories in retaliation for aggression on southern Lebanon towns and villages.

Lebanon’s al-Mayadeen television news channel, citing a Hezbollah statement, said the group fired a salvo of artillery shells and rockets at the Israeli Malikiyah site, inflicting injuries upon the occupation forces.

Hezbollah fighters also attacked the al-Marj site with a barrage of rockets, precisely striking the designated targets.

The Lebanese resistance fighters struck the Ruwaisat al-Alam and al-Samaqa sites in Lebanon’s occupied Kfarchouba village with barrages of artillery shells.

They struck the Karantina Hill outpost with several rockets and carried out a drone strike against the Israeli base in Ramot Naftali moshav as well.

Resistance to achieve ‘great victory’ in battle against Israel: Nasrallah

Hezbollah’s secretary-general says the axis of resistance is certain to achieve a “great victory” in its ongoing battle against the Israeli regime.

Hezbollah fighters also pounded the Israeli artillery positions in al-Zaoura with dozens of Katyusha rockets, announcing that the operation came in reprisal for Israeli attacks on the southern Lebanese villages of Tayibe and Ayta ash Shab.

Hezbollah reiterated that the operations were in support of Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip as well as their brave resistance factions and in retaliation for the Israeli aggression on towns and villages in southern Lebanon.

The Israeli regime has repeatedly attacked southern Lebanon since October 7, when it launched a genocidal war on Gaza that has killed at least 33,634 Palestinians, most of them women and children.

In retaliation, Hezbollah has launched near-daily rocket attacks on Israeli positions.

At least 349 people have been killed on the Lebanese border, including 68 civilians.

The fighting has forced the evacuation of tens of thousands from the northern part of the occupied territories, amid rocket fire and shelling carried out by Hezbollah and allied Palestinian groups.

Hezbollah has already fought off two Israeli wars against Lebanon in 2000 and 2006. The resistance forced the regime to retreat in both conflicts.
