Hezbollah Rockets Hit Israeli Military Headquarters in Giaton

Hezbollah Rockets Hit Israeli Military Headquarters in Giaton

The Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah says it has targeted an Israeli military position in the northern occupied territories.

Hezbollah Targets Israeli Military Position

Hezbollah, the Lebanese resistance movement, has claimed responsibility for targeting an Israeli military position in the northern occupied territories. The attack involved a volley of Katyusha rockets fired at the newly established headquarters of the 146th Division in Giaton.

Response to Israeli Attacks

Hezbollah stated that the operation was carried out in response to Israel’s attacks on civilian areas in southern Lebanon, particularly in the town of Maaroub. The rocket attack was also aimed at showing the Lebanese movement’s support for Palestinians in Gaza.

Impact of the Rocket Attack

According to the Israeli regime’s media, Israel’s Iron Dome air defense system was unable to intercept most of Hezbollah’s missiles. The attack caused a huge fire in the western part of Galilee in the north of the occupied territories.

Escalating Tensions and Threats

The Israeli regime has been conducting near-daily attacks against the southern parts of Lebanon since October 7, prompting Hezbollah to respond with strikes aimed at retaliating against the regime and supporting the war-hit Gazans. The Israeli regime has also been repeatedly threatening to expand its attacks into another wholesale military onslaught against the country.

Hezbollah's Vow and Response

Hezbollah has vowed to defend the Lebanese soil with all its resources and has pledged to avenge the blood of Fuad Shukr, one of the group’s senior commanders, and Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’ former political leader, who were killed in separate assassination operations conducted by Tel Aviv in Lebanon’s capital Beirut and the Iranian capital Tehran late last month.

Hezbollah's Leader's Statement

Hezbollah’s Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah emphasized that the occupying regime was incapable of defending itself and was fearful of the Islamic Republic and the resistance’s response to the assassinations.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the recent rocket attack by Hezbollah on the Israeli military headquarters in Giaton reflects the escalating tensions between the two parties and the broader regional implications of the conflict. The situation remains volatile, with both sides making strong statements and threats.
