Hezbollah continues to defend southern Lebanon, destroying multiple Israeli Merkava tanks and striking key military sites in Tel Aviv

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah continues to ambush Israeli military armored platoons across multiple sectors in southern Lebanon, announcing that its fighters hit dozens of tanks on Thursday.

With a new record number of military operations, the Resistance continues to defend Lebanon and its people under Operation Devoured Straw, in response to the Israeli aggression targeting dozens of villages, homes, and cities, particularly in South Lebanon, the Bekaa, and Beirut's Southern Suburb.

Israeli occupation forces were ambushed by the Resistance across all fronts, as Hezbollah announced yesterday a record number of operations, 87.
