On Tuesday, Resistance fighters in Lebanon conducted a series of operations in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza and in defense of Lebanon. 

The attacks included a wide range of strikes near the Israeli line of withdrawal from South Lebanon, specifically on key areas that Israeli ground forces have taken as a launching pad for attacks on the country.

It is worth noting that the Israeli military command has announced that two zones, one at the eastern extremities of the Western al-Jalil, between Dovev and Malkiyah, and the other at the northern extremities of the al-Jalili Panhandle, which includes the Metulla settlement, have been declared military zones. The command has also ordered an additional four reserve brigades to the Northern Front, as it continues to threaten a ground invasion against Lebanon.

Instead, Hezbollah fighters struck the movements of Israeli units using a variety of weapons. 

The Islamic Resistance also announced its first two attacks of "Operation Khaibar," which come in the context of the Israeli regime's assassination of the great Resistance leader martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. 

The first operation saw Hezbollah fighters fire salvos of Fadi-4-type rockets at the Israeli Glilot base, the headquarters of the Israeli Military Intelligence Directorate's Unit 8200, located in the suburbs of Tel Aviv. 

The second operation saw Hezbollah fire a salvo of Fadi-4 rockets at the Sde Dov Airport, an airstrip used for both military and civilian purposes by the Israeli regime near Tel Aviv.

In an operation that came in response to the wide-scale Israeli aggression on Lebanese territory, Hezbollah fighters fired a salvo of rockets at the Ilaniya base, precise hits to their intended targets in the site positions between the lake of Tabaraya and the occupied city of al-Nasirah.
