After 18 months of Israeli air dominance and claims that Hezbollah had been dismantled south of the Litani River, advancing enemy forces encountered a different reality on the ground. Hezbollah resistance fighters have surfaced in a series of fierce engagements, confronting Israeli attempts to advance and launching rocket strikes on targets across the Zionist entity.
The Lebanese resistance group’s fighters on Monday have heroically repelled Israeli attempts to advance across the southern Lebanese border, targeting the enemy gatherings with rocket weapons, as part of Hezbollah’s Operation Eaten Straw.
