The Hezbollah resistance movement says more than 95 Israeli officers and soldiers have been killed and 900 others wounded since the regime started its ground invasion against Lebanon.

Hezbollah said in a statement issued on Friday morning that in the past 45 days, it has destroyed a large number of Israel’s military vehicles, including 42 Merkava tanks, 4 military bulldozers, 2 Hummer vehicles, 1 armored vehicle, and 1 troop carrier.

Resistance fighters also downed three Hermes-450 and two Hermes-900 drones.

“Enemy forces avoid movement within the visibility range of resistance fighters to prevent being targeted. They have established invisible crossings and paths and resort to nighttime infiltration into border villages, retreating after destroying civilian homes and sabotaging infrastructure,” Hezbollah said in the statement

“Supply lines to the front and engagement axes have not been severed since the start of the aggression on Lebanon, with fronts continuously supplied with arms and personnel as per pre-arranged plans,” the resistance group added.

“Despite the intelligence blockade imposed by the enemy in southern skies, fighters continue to launch hundreds of rocket barrages targeting enemy troop positions deep within the entity daily and around the clock, as confirmed by videos released by the military media. The enemy has not thwarted any launches from Lebanese territory,” it said.

Hezbollah continued to hit more Israeli targets in fresh retaliatory operations across the occupied territories.

It launched rocket attacks on several Israeli military sites, including the Ramim barracks and a warehouse east of Akka, while targeting the settlements of Karmiel, Metulla, and Krayot.

Several gathering points of the regime’s soldiers were also directly hit with Hezbollah’s rockets.

Since October 2023, Israel has killed over 2,700 people in Lebanon. Most of them have lost their lives in the past month amid the intensified airstrikes and a ground offensive.

Hezbollah has been responding to the aggression with retaliatory operations, targeting the occupied territories.

The Lebanese Resistance movement has vowed to keep up its operations against Israel as long as the regime continues its campaign of genocide in Gaza, which has so far killed more than 43,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
