Hezbollah rains down missiles across Isreal
TEHRAN- Following the deadly Israeli attacks on the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital Beirut, Hezbollah has responded with devastating effect.
The Lebanese resistance has waged one of its largest daily rocket, missile and drone attacks on Israel.
Tel Aviv activated David’s Sling Air Defense system but it appears to have failed to intercept incoming projectiles from even striking Tel Aviv.
Hezbollah said it bombarded the Glilot base, affiliated with the 8200 Military Intelligence Unit, in the suburbs of Tel Aviv using a qualitative missile barrage.
As part of the Khaybar series of operations, Hezbollah announced targeting Palmachim Airbase south of Tel Aviv with a swarm of attack drones. The airbase also houses a military research base and an Arrow air defense system radar.
“The Islamic Resistance targeted, for the first time, the regional logistics regiment at the Misgav base northeast of Haifa with a rocket barrage,” Hezbollah announced late on Saturday.
Israeli media: “Suspicious objects believed to be drones infiltrated the airspace of Eilat.”In another operation, Hezbollah targeted the “Zvulun Military Industries Base north of Haifa with a qualitative missile barrage”.
A quick Hezbollah statement followed in which it said it had targeted the same Israeli military base for the second time.
Footage also showed extensive damage after missiles fell in the Hasharon area of Tel Aviv also known as Tira.
It is unclear whether this was from a Hezbollah missile after local sources told Hebrew media the missile that hit Tira area was an interceptor missile for the Israeli air defenses, not a Hezbollah missile.
Hebrew media noted that Hezbollah remained silent for 12 hours and then began firing ballistic missiles into the depths of Tel Aviv.
Scores of rockets and missiles, along with swarms of drones, were launched from Lebanon, most of them targeting the Western Galilee, Krayot, and Haifa.
According to Israeli media, the Israeli electricity company carried out a number of maintenance and repair operations for electricity networks and high-voltage lines that were damaged by the missile bombardment that targeted a number of them in western and upper Galilee.
Hebrew Channel 12 also published a video showing the moment a drone exploded in a factory north of Nahariya.
Israeli forces in Safad city, north of Safad, the Bar-Yohai settlement as well as east of Maroun Al-Ras (in Lebanon) came under fire.
This is while in the Krayot area north of Haifa, the Birya, Yesud HaMa'ala, Dalton, Sha'al, and Al-Malkiya settlements were bombarded with missile barrages, according to other statements by Hezbollah.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese resistance movement has issued more evacuation orders.
In a video message, accompanied by a list of settlements, Hezbollah said: “To all residents of the settlements mentioned in this statement. You are requested to evacuate immediately. Your settlements have become a place of deployment and settlement for the enemy military forces attacking Lebanon. As a result, they have become legitimate military targets for the air and missile forces of the Islamic Resistance, Hezbollah.”
In other developments, the commander of Israel's Northern Command, Uri Gordin and the commander of the Central Command, Avi Belot, have been injured. Hebrew media reported that both senior commanders were injured in southern Lebanon.
