📹 A large fire is ongoing inside a wood factory in Beirut, Chuwayfeit area.

☀️ Extreme (G5) geomagnetic conditions have been observed.

⚠️ Widespread drone alerts in the Galilee tip

📹 With the absence and failure of the Iron Dome to counter drone, Israeli jets are again used to intercept the couple of drones fired from Lebanese territory towards military targets in Israel.

Rumors say, the drone was intercepted by impacting an Iron Dome 🤷‍♂

📹 Footage of the drone flying over Lebanese territory and going towards Israel.

The explosion is from a failed Israeli jet's attempt to shoot it down. Drones are supposedly and usually an easy target for jets.

📹 After the incident, an Israeli jet patrolled the skies of Khiyam village and fired flares.

🗣️ Hezbullah issued a statement announcing they attacked with suicide drones Beit Hillel base and the new Iron Dome formation in it.

They confirm destroy and sabotaging part of the air defence battery.

🗣️ Hezbullah issued a statement saying the attack on Beit Hillel was done through two separate drones at two separate times.

The first was as announced, and the second towards the same attacked area in assumption that the Israeli soldiers will gather to assess the damages.

The statement makes mention of the failure of the F-16 jet to intercept the drones. The Israeli army acknowledges "an event" and says no injuries.

📑 The 11th of May was the only day since 8-October (excluding the ceasefire days) where no Israeli attack took place in Lebanon.

Now, the Israeli army attacked with artillery Majdal Zoun, Al-Jebyan, and Al-Balat mountain.

📹 Hezbullah released footage of its Falaq and Grad rocket launchers used in the attack on Qirhat Shmona on 10 May.

20 of these rockets impacted inside the settlement and caused widespread fires

📹 Hezbullah's SG His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah to speak tomorrow on the 8th anniversary of the martyrdom of the senior commander Mustafa Badreddine at 5.00 pm (speech to start closer to 6.00 pm).

🇱🇧 The commander of the Lebanese army is on an official visit to Qatar, to discuss the situation in Lebanon and the region, and ask for the renewal of the Qatari financial support for the Lebanese army.

Both Qatar and the US were providing a $100 for each soldier, to help cope with the financial crisis in 2019.

🗣️ Hezbullah takes credit for its first attack today, announcing they destroyed an Israeli army logistics vehicle carrying equipment and other equipment in Rameem base at 2.10 today.

Earlier today, a drone exploded north of Nahariyah and rocket alert was sounded in Yiftah.

📑 Long ago, I made a remark saying that with up to 20 years in leadership, Netanyahu not once acted against Hezbullah in a full scale war and he always preferred to fight the Palestinians.

These remarks continue to prove themselves as true, remarkably to a degree that Netanyahu himself told his government to forget about northern Israel and Hezbullah.

According to Israeli channel 12, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rebuked Ministers Benny Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot in a discussion session about the situation in the north.

The ministers pointed out the need to deal with the Hezbullah threat and return the evacuated residents of the north, however Netanyahu shouted and said:

"Stop provoking [the public] about this matter. Do not make a show out of it."

📝 While the remark is a fun observation, not opening a second front in Lebanon against a much stronger foe than Hamas, and a one capable of bringing serious damage to Israel, is the only smart decision to make.

That, and genuinely no one in the West has an appetite for a war in Lebanon and a widespread destruction in Beirut. Just not yet.

📑 It's also quite amazing how the Israeli leadership is at loss of path on how to move forward because of the political clash and loss of direction.

There is no plan on what to do forward on, and there is no unity in the goals to achieve.

This situation has forced the Israeli army to operate in the same areas it already claimed fulfilling its objectives in, once and twice and thrice.

With renewed operations in Northern Gaza, the Gaza that is besieged by Israel from all 4 sides and has no access to what Rafah offers, continues to resist and rebuild and place a toll on the Israeli army.

In the new operation in Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, the Israeli army lost 5 soldiers and many more injured, including a Brigadier General, who was moderately wounded.

Army Chief of Staff Hertzi Halevi slammed Netanyahu in one of the recent cabinet discussions saying thay: "We are now operating once again in Northern Gaza. As long as there is no political move that will be established to govern the Strip instead of Hamas, we will have to act again and again there and in other places to dismantle Hamas infrastructure. It will be a sizzling effort.'

Halevi said these things - when senior IDF officers implored, and are on the brink of begging, the Prime Minister and the Israeli leadership to make decisions, formulate a strategy.

Cabinet officials have warned Netanyahu over the past few weeks and said that Israel's behavior and the fact that the government didn't not make decisions about what it wants to happen in Gaza the day after the war - "simply endangers human life."

🗣️ Hezbullah announce attacking the outskirts of Zibdin base to target the staging grounds of the Israeli army.

New heavy rockets named "Jihad Moghnieh" were used for the first time.

📷 The Israeli enemy carried an airstrike in Halta hills near Kafarshouba.
