Hezbollah, the resistance movement in Lebanon, has attacked Tel Aviv and Haifa with kamikaze drones and missiles in the occupied Palestinian areas. It has also shown off a new precision missile that it plans to use in its ongoing fight against the Israeli government.

The movement said in a statement on Wednesday that it had launched a first-of-its-kind air attack on the Belo Base, home to the reserve paratrooper brigade of the Israeli enemy army’s 98th Division south of Tel Aviv. The attack was successful, the movement said.

Hezbollah referred to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, who died in late September when Israel attacked Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, with a barrage of airstrikes, saying, “We are at your service, O Nasrallah.” Nasrallah was the movement’s former secretary general.

In response, the group said, “We are standing with our loyal Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and their brave and honorable resistance. We are also standing with Lebanon and its people.”
Hezbollah has carried out hundreds of these kinds of attacks since October, when the state started a murderous war on Gaza and stepped up its attacks on Lebanon.

So far, the harsh military attack has killed at least 43,391 Palestinians, mostly women and children. The new attack on Lebanon has killed at least 3,050 people.

In a separate statement, the movement said it would launch an attack from the air using a group of attack drones on the Haifa Naval Base, which is home to a fleet of missile boats and submarines in Haifa Bay.

Similar to the attack on Tel Aviv, the group conducted the attack on Haifa “for the first time and hit its targets accurately.”

Hezbollah forces also used a barrage of missiles and a squadron of drones to launch “a complex operation” against the Stella Maris naval base northwest of Haifa. The Stella Maris naval base serves as a strategic hub for naval monitoring and surveillance.

Additionally, Israeli news outlets said that Hezbollah fired rockets at the illegal town of Avivim in the northern part of the occupied territories, killing one Israeli soldier and hurting about ten others.

The attack also hurt four illegal Israeli settlers, and three of them are said to be in bad condition. The attack also ignited a massive fire in the targeted area.

The news sources say that Hezbollah rocket fire also killed an Israeli settler south of the city of Akka in the northwest of the territories.

Hezbollah claimed to have fired rocket salvos at the Zevulun military industries base north of Haifa and at the city of Safad in two separate comments.

Hezbollah’s return fire in the village of Maroun al-Ras in southern Lebanon also flipped over an advanced Israeli Merkava-4 tank, injuring the people inside, according to online videos.

The movement also announced the addition of the 10-meter-precision surface-to-surface missile, known as the Fateh (Conqueror)-110, to its arsenal on Wednesday. This is part of its ongoing response to Israel’s attacks on Gaza and Lebanon.

The missile can fly up to 186 miles (300 kilometers) and is very destructive. You can fire it from fixed or mobile platforms, and it runs on solid fuel.

The projectile carries a 500 kilogram warhead with a diameter of 616 millimeters. The projectile is 8.8 meters long and weighs 3,450 kilograms.

Hezbollah has said it will keep attacking until Israel stops its war on Gaza and its anger toward Lebanon.
