The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah continued to defend against
invading Israeli occupation forces on Lebanon's southern border while
launching top-tier attacks against an expanding set of Israeli targets on
Friday.
Khaibar Series of Operations

In continuation of the Resistance's response to Israeli massacres that
targeted civilians and commanders in Lebanon, Hezbollah fighters executed
three long-range attacks, in line with the group's "Khaibar Series of
Operations."

The first of these operations saw the launching of a precision-guided salvo
of rockets at the Stella Maris Naval Base in the occupied city of Haifa.
The base has come under long-range Hezbollah attacks on a near daily basis
this week, with the most recent strike conducted at 8:00 am on Friday.

The Naval Base hosts high-tech hardware used to monitor and identify
maritime movements northwards.

Concurrently, a second long-range attack targeted the Ramat David Air Base,
which hosts a substantial portion of the Israeli Air Force's operational
activities against Lebanon. Precision-guided rockets were also used to
target the air base.

Later on Friday afternoon, at 3:15 pm, Hezbollah fighters launched their
longest-range attack on the Tel Nof Air Base, in southern Tel Aviv, via a
salvo of precision-guided rockets.

Direct confrontations

On the border, Hezbollah fighters utilized a variety of weapons and methods
to confront invading Israeli troops.

Defensive actions were focused on the eastern section of the Western Axis,
in Maroun al-Ras, and border villages facing the tip of the al-Jalil
Panhandle, such as Kfar Kila and Odeisseh.

At 12:10 am, Hezbollah fighters fired artillery shells at Israeli
occupation forces, positioned in an open area in southern Odeissah. The
Military Media Unit said that the attack caused confirmed casualties among
enemy troops.

At 1:20 am, Hezbollah fighters fired an anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) at
an Israeli military-grade bulldozer. The armored vehicle was destroyed and
its crew members were killed and injured. The Military Media Unit explained
that a bulldozer had been escorting Israeli infantry who also fell casualty
due to the ATGM attack. In further details, the force was positioned on a
hilltop in northwestern Kfar Kila.

In Maroun al-Ras, Hezbollah's Unmanned Air Force launched two one-way
attack drones at a grouping of Israeli occupation forces positioned in the
eastern section of the border town, dealing precise hits to the intended
targets, at 3:15 pm.

At 5:00 pm, Hezbollah fighters fired another ATGM at an Israeli force in
the aforementioned area in Kfar Kila. This time the ATGM targeted and
destroyed an Israeli Armored Personnel Carrier (APC), killing and injuring
its crew members.
