Israeli Military Strikes Hezbollah Targets in Syria and Lebanon

The Israeli military spokesperson, Daniel Haggai, has announced that Israeli forces have targeted over 50 Hezbollah sites in Syria and 3,400 in Lebanon since the beginning of the war in the Gaza Strip approximately 4 months ago.

Haggai stated on Saturday that Israel has attacked over 50 similar Hezbollah targets in various parts of Syria from both the ground and air, in addition to more than 3,400 similar strikes against Hezbollah targets in Lebanon.

The spokesperson mentioned the destruction of 150 Hezbollah cells in Lebanon and the killing of 200 individuals in these attacks. However, the French Press Agency noted their inability to independently verify any of these numbers, with Israel rarely commenting on the strikes they carry out in Syria. Nevertheless, Israel has repeatedly stated that it will not allow Iran to solidify its presence in the neighboring country, Syria.

Conversely, the Israeli army reported the deaths of 9 soldiers and 6 civilians in northern Israel, stating that they are conducting ground, air, and naval exercises in anticipation of any war in the north.

Since the “Operation Lasting Heritage” and the outbreak of the war between Israel and the Palestinian resistance led by the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades on October 7th, the Lebanese-Israeli border has witnessed almost daily exchanges of shelling, particularly between the Israeli army and Hezbollah.

Hezbollah regularly declares targeting sites of the Israeli army on the border in support of Palestinians in Gaza, and Israel responds by shelling the “infrastructure” of the party and its fighters in the border areas.

According to the French Press Agency, approximately 250 people have been killed in Lebanon, most of whom are Hezbollah fighters, including at least 26 civilians.

It is worth mentioning that the Israeli aggression in the Gaza Strip led to 27,238 martyrs and 66,452 wounded – mostly children and women – according to the Palestinian authorities. It also resulted in unprecedented destruction and a humanitarian catastrophe, according to the United Nations.
