A fire broke out some time ago inside a carpentry workshop for Muhammad Zuhair in the Al-Ouzai area, opposite to the Markaba 2 station. It then spread also to neighboring houses.

Civil defense vehicles were not able to reach the fire until now due to the narrow roads.
David Daoud: «More targets in the video, dramatic music, etc, etc. But this video isn't demonstration of Hezbollah's sophistication. All of this info is on Google and Wikipedia.»

David is mentioning known, obvious sites, but skipping the ones like a command and control (CC) junction in Haifa university, a radar and a CC near a church, or a CC in an electric plant?

I think those are more interesting and much less known.

🇮🇱 According to the Israeli army radio, the number of enlisted females has increased 3X from the previous years from 2,000 to 6,000.

This is allegedly due to the high motivation of females to serve and the need of soldiers after decreasing the mandatory service period.

Females mostly serve in border control missions (watching cameras) and in drone units.

Some serve in the air force and combat units.
War Minister Gantz at the ceremony for soldiers with no known burial site:

"If we have to reach battle days - Lebanon will tremble and be shaken, and Hezbullah will be struck critically."
On this day, Hezbullah's shoura council elected its youngest member (32 years old) Sayed Hasan Nasrallah as its secretary general.
After the council ended its session:

"Brothers, I give you good news. The brothers gathered in the decision-making session in Hezbollah and chose the successor of the best predecessor, they chose him unanimously, they chose him enthusiastically, they chose a warrior. An arrow aimed to the heart of the enemies. An arrow that always reaches its target. It is the brother Eminence Sayed Hassan Nasrallah."

Announced Sheikh Sobhi Al Tufayli that day.

The National Agency: Three boys were injured in a grenade explosion in Sahl al-Nabi Othman in Hermel.
Israeli media:

"Mousawi's successor: Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah. Until recently, Nasrallah was responsible for attacks against Israel in southern Lebanon. Nasrallah is Hezbollah's most radical line, and his ties to senior Tehran figures are close."

"He often speaks sharply against Israel: «This country has no right to exist, it must be erased», he said recently. Also on Tuesday, at the funeral of his predecessor in office, he warned: «We will fight until Israel is eliminated»."
