Protesters closed Al Ring bridge in Beirut just now in protest. https://t.co/S2QezLWWmL
IDF jets are now on standby in northern Palastine.
Israeli media claim 4 were killed in that area.

No extra details. https://t.co/eRVeUr5wbA
IDF confirmed the incident. No details on who the "terrorist"s are. https://t.co/BHM7LT6eQ3
Some pointers:

- No exchange of fire happened after that initial attack

- No info on the location of the bodies - IDF confirmed their deaths

- No footage of the alleged drone strike on the cell

- No Syrian MOD statement

- No IDF footage or photos
- Hezbullah doesn't operate without fire support, and in case the cell got killed a clash would have definitely happened; At least to recover the bodies

- If Hezbullah was planning an attack and a cell was engaged, supporting cells should have engaged the ambush forces
- Planting an IED at night is not something to be done at such high alert by any military standards, especially Hezbullah's, as it was it's preferred weapon behind enemy lines pre 2000 against the IDF.

- As long as IDF shows no footage, they are lying like they lied about M Dov.
- Even if what IDF engaged was not Hezbullah, there should be no reason to not show proof.

- In the last two retaliations Hezbullah used ATGMs to remove the risk of death to its operating units. There is no rational reason to do otherwise now with such IDF reinforcements
- In Avivim operation, Hezbullah had two ATGM cells at two different areas, several kms away. The mere narrative of one cell now and one cell last time is weak

- Even if it wasn't Hezbullah tonight, nothing can operate without the Syrian army seeing it. So why silent
- IDF can't ID this is Syrian or Lebanese. So when it shot to kill, it knew it's risking killing a Hezbullah.

If they took this risk now and confirmed kills, unlike Mount Dov when they didn't kill, why didn't PM Netanyahu and MOD Gantz rush to IDF HQ. Killing seems more serious!
These are simple observations, I'm waiting like you for accurate updates soon.

If it's Hezbullah related, expect a statement mourning 4 killed tomorrow morning after informing the families. If it's not, wait for the Syrians to mourn 4 killed

If not, then the IDF lied again. END
And one last point, a drone fired.

The last time I saw a drone fire a spike missile a small fire started (remember last week's IDF helicopter strike on SAA AA)

No locals reported any explosion sound, let alone light or fire. https://t.co/l4kXYeR8v6
And for those doubting a spike actually makes a sound and a ball of fire (it's obvious I know but what can I say), this is a spike being fired from the air towards a target. https://t.co/IoPShvwXR9
On August 3 2010 an Israel–Lebanese border clash occurred between the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) and Israel Defense Forces (IDF), after an IDF team attempted to cut down a tree from the contested areas near the Blue Line. (1/2) https://t.co/AqiJjFI9IQ
