Seven zionist forces have been killed during confrontations with Hezbollah
In a series of clashes on the southern border between Lebanon and the occupied Palestinian territories, at least seven members of the Israeli military have reportedly been killed in confrontations with Hezbollah, the Lebanese resistance movement.
Israeli media has reported that fatalities occurred during clashes on the border near the Lebanese villages of Aita al-Shaab and Ramia on Wednesday.
Numerous soldiers sustained injuries, with approximately 17 in serious condition, following a clash that occurred after an ambush by Hezbollah, according to reports. This development comes as Israeli military authorities are reportedly enforcing stringent censorship surrounding the incident.
Earlier reports have confirmed that a minimum of 49 injured soldiers have been transported to medical facilities in the occupied territories in the aftermath of the incident.
A total of 44 individuals who sustained injuries have been airlifted to medical facilities in Haifa, located in the northern region of the territory.
Rambam Hospital has announced a mass casualty event following the arrival of eight helicopters transporting injured individuals. The hospital has issued a call for extra medical personnel to manage the situation.
Hezbollah reported that its fighters engaged in intense close-range combat with Israeli forces, utilizing a range of machine guns in what the group described as a violent confrontation.
The situation remains tense as intense artillery shelling and helicopter operations persist in the region, according to reports.
The event impacted personnel from the Israeli military’s Golani Brigade.
Since October, Hezbollah has mounted numerous counterattacks against Israeli forces and occupied territories in response to escalating aggression from Israel, which has intensified its assaults on Lebanon. The ongoing violence has resulted in the deaths of over 2,300 Lebanese citizens.
On Wednesday, the movement launched rocket attacks targeting Israeli military gatherings in the unauthorized settlements of Khallet Warda, Misgav Am, and another location in Wadi Hounin. Additionally, the city of Safed came under bombardment.
Hezbollah forces engaged two Israeli drones that had entered Lebanese southern airspace, deploying surface-to-air missiles which compelled the drones to return to Israeli-controlled areas.
On Tuesday, the Deputy Secretary General of the group, Sheikh Naim Qassem, emphasized the critical role of resistance against the regime. He stated, “Israel and its backers continue to engage in warfare and perpetrate massacres, compelling us to defend our position.”
“The Resistance remains resolute, grounded in its connection to the land and the unwavering dedication of its fighters, who embrace a life of honor. ‘Your military forces have suffered setbacks and will continue to face defeats,’ he stated.”
