Hezbollah launches aerial strike against Tel Aviv using drone squadron
Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has launched a retaliatory strike against the outskirts of the city of Tel Aviv in the occupied Palestinian territories with a squadron of kamikaze drones.
The movement announced carrying out the strike in a statement on Saturday.
It said it had conducted the operation “in support of our steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and their brave and honorable resistance as well as in defense of Lebanon and its people.”
Hezbollah has launched hundreds of such retaliatory strikes against the occupied territories since last October, when the Israeli regime began bringing Gaza under a genocidal war and intensifying its deadly attacks against Lebanon. The war and the escalation have so far claimed the lives of more than 42,000 Palestinians and upwards of 2,000 Lebanese people.
Also on Saturday, the group announced targeting the Israeli airbase in Kiryat Eliezer, west of the city of Haifa, the Ein Margaliot military base, the communications base in Keren Naftali, the vicinity of the Ramim site, the Zevulun Military Industrial Base, the Maale Golani barracks, and the Houma base in Syria’s Tel Aviv-occupied Golan Heights with either rocket barrages, drone squadrons or artillery shells.
Gatherings of Israeli forces in the Keren Naftali, Misgav Am, Kfar Giladi, Manara, Khirbet Nafha, and Kfar Giladi settlements were among other targets struck by the movement.
Hezbollah also targeted an enemy infantry force that was trying to infiltrate the Lebanese territory from the direction of the Ramia position with a guided missile, afflicting casualties on it, besides targeting a gathering of enemy troops in the vicinity of the al-Marj village in eastern Lebanon with a rocket barrage.
Later, it announced bombing the enemy’s position in the Mi'ilya council in the occupied territories with a rocket barrage.
The group has vowed to sustain its strikes until the regime ceased its aggression against Gaza and Lebanon.
Amid the strikes, the Israeli military has reportedly declared the settlements of Zarit, Shoumera, Shtula, Netua, and Even Menachem on the occupied territories’ north-central border as “closed military zones,” prohibiting entry into them.
The military has already assigned such designations to the town of Metulla as well as the Misgav Am and Kfar Giladi settlements in the northern side of the territories.
