Hezbollah’s Military Media has released several videos documenting recent attacks by the Lebanese group against Israel.
The first video shows an attack on a Merkava MK 4M main battle tank of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) near border settlements of Zar’it that took place on October 19. The tank was targeted with an Iranian-made Almas anti-tank guided missile.
Another video showed Hezbollah fighters firing a salvo of Fadi-2 heavy artillery rockets, which are thought to be Syrian-made M302s, at a site of Israel’s weapons manufacturer IMI Systems in the suburbs of the central city of Tel Aviv on October 23.
The third video included footage from rocket attacks that targeted the northern settlements of Karmiel and Nahariya on October 24. The settlements were targeted with what appears to be Fadi-1 heavy artillery rockets, which are said to be a version of the Syrian-made M220.
The last video showed an attack with Nasir-2 precision-guided artillery rockets, a varian of the M302, that targeted the IDF’s Carmel base near the northern city of Haifa on October 25.
It’s worth noting that Hezbollah announced a record of 48 operations against the IDF on October 25, ranging from rocket and drone attacks to strikes against tanks and clashes with troops. From its side, the IDF announced the death of ten soldiers.
The clashes on the Lebanese-Israeli border first broke out after the start of the war in the Gaza Strip, with Hezbollah launching attacks in support of the Palestinian enclave. Israel escalated its attacks on Lebanon starting from September 17 and on September 27 it assassinated the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Hassan Nassrallah.
The IDF escalated even further on September 30 by launching a limited ground operation against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.
The confrontation has so far resulted in 29 civilian deaths in Israel and the occupied Syrian Golan Heights as well as the deaths of at least 55 soldiers and security officers. On the Lebanese side, more than 2,634 people have been killed, including more than 500 members of Hezbollah.
