Following Israeli threats to “burn Lebanon” as a result of the latest escalations between Hezbollah and the Israeli military, the answer of the Lebanese Resistance group was swift.
Hezbollah drones attacked a newly established Israeli military site near the Israeli-Lebanese border, reportedly killing several Israeli officers.
Since the start of the war, Hezbollah has gradually escalated its retaliatory attacks, carried out in solidarity with Gaza.
The early phase focused on destroying Israeli intelligence equipment belonging to the northern command. Recent days, however, indicated that Hezbollah is ready to escalate even further, should Israel continue with its genocidal war against Gaza.
Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
A large number of ambulances continue to transport Israeli soldiers who were injured as a result of Hezbollah's drone attack on Hurfesh, near the border.
At least two soldiers have been killed and 20 injured, including five in serious condition, according to Israeli media.… pic.twitter.com/WyU7BZuVvh

Hey, Israel…what’s that…you got a little, brown smudge on your nose…
how did that happen???
Clearly we can see who the real fighters are. Making Israel look like little boys playing army soldiers.
The Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah and other freedom fighters, bless their holy names, fighting for the future of a free Palestine, are owed a greater debt by us, the non-Palestinians, than by their fellow palestinians. Why do I say this and now ? It is because in the face of the racist, genocidal bestiality of America under Butcher Biden and the Satanic Senate and the Zionist in-human thugs, we are being shown how free-thinking, badly armed, starving and hopeless but still unfailingly altruistic young heroes can teach us about valour, courage, principles, self-sacrifice and justice, in a world corrupted by America. I spent over thirty years in war. I admire Hamas, I love Houthis !
