After news reports emerged that a large number of Israeli helicopters had landed in Haifa’s Rambam hospitals, Israeli media confirmed that five Israeli soldiers were killed as a result of clashes at the Lebanon border.
Israeli media had earlier reported that fierce fighting are taking place at border areas, where fighters were using ‘non-traditional’ warfare methods.
The term ‘non-traditional’ remains unexplained but soon after the announcement, the Israeli army began to admit to its losses. For its part, Hezbollah confirmed that “clashes are continuing under heavy artillery bombardment and helicopter activity in the area,” adding that there were “confirmed deaths and injuries among the ranks of the IOF (Israeli occupation forces), which are being transported to Haifa and Tel Aviv hospitals.”
Meanwhile, the Resistance in Gaza continued, using new methods, which demonstrate that the Israeli war on Gaza, despite the passing of time, has failed to destroy, let alone weaken, Palestinian groups in the invaded areas.
Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
