Hezbollah says hit 43 Israeli targets as part of anti-aggression ops on Sunday

Hezbollah’s Islamic Resistance announced on Sunday that it carried out 43 military operations against Israeli enemy positions and troop concentrations along the border and deep inside occupied Palestine, in response to repeated ceasefire violations and the regime’s relentless aggression on Lebanese villages.

The operations included drone strikes on a key communications hub in the occupied Golan Heights, a direct hit on a Merkava tank, multiple rocket barrages on Kiryat Shmona and Nahariya, and guided missile strikes on command sites and military infrastructure.

The most significant operations included:

• A precision drone strike on the communications station at the Al-Alika barracks in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, causing a direct hit.
• A loitering drone strike on a Merkava tank near the hospital of Mays al-Jabal.
• Swarms of explosive drones targeting Israeli troop gatherings in Al-Bayyada, Yaroun, and Kfar Yuval.
• Rocket barrages on the Kiryat Shmona barracks, the Nahariya settlement, and the 146th Division headquarters in Gaaton.
• Shelling of newly established Israeli positions in southern Lebanon, including the Balat site and the Al-Asi heights near Mays al-Jabal.

Hezbollah fighters also struck the Meron air surveillance and operations management base, the Filon base south of Rosh Pina, and underground infrastructure in the Karmiel and Katzrin settlements.

The operations spanned from Sunday morning until late night, with multiple barrages launched at troop and vehicle gatherings in the border towns of Khiam, Bint Jbeil, Taybeh, and Aita al-Shaab.

April 12: Hezbollah’s operations against Zionist regime in response to truce breach

Hours after the Iran-US ceasefire, Israel violated the truce with Lebanon strikes. In retaliation, Hezbollah has been targeting Israeli military sites and other assets across the occupied territories.

Hezbollah said the operations were a “duty to defend Lebanon and its people” after Israel repeatedly violated the ceasefire agreement that was supposed to include Lebanon.

“This response will continue until the Israeli-American aggression on our country and our people stops,” the Resistance said in a statement.

“The Islamic Resistance is committed to defending its land and people, especially as the Israeli enemy has crossed all borders with its criminality. This is the minimum duty to stop it from advancing its dangerous goals against Lebanon, state, people, and Resistance.”

The announcement came as Lebanese families buried more victims of ongoing Israeli strikes.

In the southern village of Srifa, an Israeli air strike killed a two-year-old girl, Taleen Saeed, and four other relatives as they were burying her father.

The family had returned to the village on Wednesday, the first day of a US-Iran ceasefire that many hoped would apply to Lebanon. Instead, Israeli strikes killed more than 350 people across Lebanon in the following days.

More than 160 children have been killed in Lebanon since the escalation began, according to local health authorities.

Pope Leo on Sunday called for a ceasefire, saying there was a “moral obligation to protect the civilian population.”
