- We had no intention of using strategic missiles now, but we may use them in the future and in the near future.

- Half an hour before our operation, the enemy carried out its pre-emptive attack. They felt a strange movement in the south. The evidence is that all the places that were targeted have nothing to do with our operation today.

They saw movement and acted based on it. Only three martyrs rose, one from Amal, despite 200+ airstrikes from 100+ jets.

- Our military operation was completed as planned and with precision, despite the difficult circumstances and the Israeli UAvs that have not left the skies of the south since the assassination of Sayyed Fouad Shukr.

- Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah: The enemy's narrative was very contradicting, and many from the entity advised Netanyahu to adjust his statements before 6 pm since "someone" [aka Nasrallah] was going to speak at 6 pm.

Claims of a target inside "Tel Aviv" or the Ben Gurion Airport are lies.

- The enemy's claims of our intent to target civilians in the north is a false claim, and the evidence lies in the sites and barracks that were targeted in the north, and if there are any civilian casualties there, it is due to their interceptor missiles.

- He says how the attack on ballistic missiles was foiled because those types of strategic weapons were evacuated years ago from the areas by a plan from Sayyed Foad Shokour.

Similarly to what happened in 2006, and the attacked on those weapons failed.

- This operation was the first carried out by the resistance in the absence of a great leader like Commander Fouad Shokr. However, the resistance believes the souls of their fallen leaders accompany them, which expresses the resistance's steadfastness, skill, and continued presence.

The use of Katyusha rockets and drones has disrupted Israel. So what will happen if we reveal something else?

There is a a will to resist, and an environment that protects the resistance - this is the equation that we have returned to dedicating to protection.

- If the result is satisfactory and the intended goal is achieved, we will consider the response operation to be over

- If the result is not sufficient, we will reserve the right to respond until another time, far from today, so Lebanon can calm, people go back home and the tension eases

- Our operation today may be very useful for the Palestinian and Arab sides in the negotiations, and its message is clear to the enemy and the Americans

- Any hopes of silencing the support fronts are futile, and what we started 11 months ago we will complete, no matter the exaggerations and sacrifices

🇱🇧/🇮🇱 In a visit to the IDF HQ and other details, the Israeli minister of war Galllant claimed:

- Hezbullah was "thrown off balance," and its attempted attack on Israel this morning failed.

- He boasted about Israel's ability to "remove the threat" of Hezbullah's attack minutes before it was supposed to be carried out, was "very very successful" and that the preemptive action meant that over fifty percent, maybe two thirds of them were not launched,"

(So 50% of 6,000 is 3,000. He is still lying about the numbers)

He goes on saying we need a deal in Gaza to bring the hostages and a settlement for the battle with Hezbullah, because we don't want war and an invasion there and that he prefers an agreement.

⭕️ Video - Identity card | The two bases attacked in response to the assassination of the great leader Sayyed Fouad Shukr and the martyrdom of a number of civilians in the southern suburb of Beirut.

📹 The Israeli army released footage of their interception of one low-flying drone over the sea this morning.

So far the army didn't provide a total number of drones fired and intercepted. No claims of "no impacts".

📹 Additional footage was released of the F-35 jet activity over south Lebanon and the attack on old and current Hezbullah installations.

No ballistic of strategic weapons were affected, and only some primed rocket launchers destroyed.

📹 F-35 refueling over Lebanon, according to Israeli claims although I doubt this. They don't need refueling to attack south Lebanon, and had they been on patrol and did need fuel, they definitely didn't fly a refueling plane over Lebanon.

🇮🇱/🇺🇸IDF: The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Charles Q. Brown, Jr. landed in Israel this evening (Sunday), and is due to meet with the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Herzi Halevi, as well as additional members of the IDF General Staff Forum.

The commanders will discuss security and strategic issues regarding joint preparations in the region, as part of the response to threats in the Middle East. 

✍ Hezbullah is wise and its leadership is smart. If they weren't, they wouldn't have lasted and succeeded in the past 40 years.

Today's events might not have lived up to anyone's hype or expectations, nor felt satisfactory as a retaliation to such an Israeli attack.

But Hezbullah has its reasons, and knows its ability and timing. This is genuinely not a cope, you guys know how straight I am with facts and claims and how honest I have been about Israeli and Hezbullah claims.

They had their reasons, they know how limited this attack is, they know what to avoid to disengage and avoid a war. They knew what to do to survive and fight another day much better.

His eminence was clear that the results of the attack weren't clear yet, and might not have lived up to that initial small goal.

Time will tell. In a few months and years, all these emotions will mean nothing and this past year a mere memory of highs and lows but a piece of a big puzzle or a page in a book about the ongoing war and battle that started in 1948 and ends someday in this future, in our lives or after.

Why do I even read the comment section lol. NGL if it wasn't for some group admins, this channel would have never had a group.

🇱🇧/🇮🇱 IDF spox in a new set of claims:

- They attacked "thousands" of rocket barrels. (Now its barrels not rockets)

- The attacked launch sites were 90% short-range (oh no more strategic long range rockets)

- They killed 6 this morning (correct is 3, 2 in Hares (or Tiri) and one in Khiyam)

- 270 simultaneous airstrikes took place by 100 jet

- 230 rockets fired and 20 drones. (Hezbullah fired 340 according to its tally)

- No impacts at any Israeli base, not at all.

📹 The IDF releases an illustration showing where it carried out airstrikes against Hezbullah targets this morning.

According to Hezbullah, no strategic weapons affected, many of valleys bases were already evacuated and some primed and empty rocket launcher destroyed in areas out of scope of the current retaliation plan.

📹 The faithful people of the resistance in a show of support to Hezbullah and its wise leadership did a small march in Beirut's southern suburbs.

📸 Sirens in Tel Aviv

📄 Hamas issued a statement announcing they attacked with one rocket Tel Aviv, in response to the Israeli massacre of innocent civilians and mass displacement.

🇮🇱 Drama in Israel, Netanyahu attacks the IDF for claiming the war goals are to return the hostages exclusively

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office, in a statement, slams IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari for saying in a press conference tonight that the military is focusing on returning the hostages.

"The choice of the IDF spokesman to mention in his statement this evening only one war goal -- while ignoring the rest of the war goals -- is in complete contradiction to the directives of the political echelon," the statement says.

"The goals of the war were and remain: the return of our hostages, the destruction of the military and governmental capabilities of Hamas, the promise that Gaza will no longer be a threat to Israel, and the safe return of the residents of the north to their homes," the statement continues.

Hagari in his press conference had said that "We continue to be committed to one central war goal, recovering the 109 hostages, and we will continue to act with all efforts in order to realize it."

✍ Palestinian comments these 24 hours, went from supportive to aggressive and very insulting on various social media platforms.

It's like dealing with someone so emotional, he/she is irrational.

Dears, calm down. Feel betrayed? Sad. Leave social media and act in real life and not bitch about how others didn't do enough for you. Wars aren't won by emotions, and we in Lebanon are bleeding both lives and money in this support front for how righteous it is to offer it, knowing well it has little fruits for Lebanon as it stands today.

📄 An article by the New York Times confirms implicitly that Israel didn't have intelligence on when Hezbullah will attack, but rather the detection of movement at a large scale in south Lebanon is what collaborated with a possible large scale attack and its when jets were ordered to attack pre-emptively.

However what bugs me, is that Israel knew what the target will be, they just didn't know when and from where (which launch sites). Did they know beforehand, or did they discover it basing it on the trajectory of drones? Unlikely because I read about the targets just as Hezbullah started with the attack.

The article says that once the visual surveillance detected clear movement of missiles, the officials said, the Israeli military recommended the strike on launchers, weapons stockpiles and other targets in Lebanon.

Interestingly, a U.S. official said American drones and aircraft provided some of the surveillance imagery used to target Hezbollah launchers.

This is important to note, and something also mentioned by Hezbullah's SG, that it happened. Notably, yes Israel was successful in destroying some launchers, which means those locations were expoxed. So even though Hezbullah didn't intend to use them in yesterday, they would have in the future, and they would have lost lives using them.

Exposing launchers likely happened thanks to U.S. satellites with remarkable visual quality, and SAR radars that can see under layers. Fighting Israel is definitely a challenge, fighting Israel with the U.S. on its side helping with intelligence and supplies, is even much harder. People underestimate how hard it is to navigate such a challenge, people underestimate the might of western armies.
