Op. against Golani Brigade only a preview of what’s to come: Hezbollah

The Operations Room of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon – Hezbollah – issued a statement during the early hours of Monday, warning the Israeli enemy of the dire consequences it would suffer as it continues its aggression against Lebanon’s civilians and territories, confirming that occupied Haifa and more will become the new Kiryat Shmona, as far as the Resistance’s rockets, missiles, and drones are concerned. 

The warning came amid the Israeli aggression against the Lebanese Bekaa and its people, and was clearly declared in the published footage of what the Resistance’s latest Hoopoe mission captured of sensitive Israeli military targets and vital amenities, particularly in ocucpied Haifa. The Resistance then affirmed that it is listening and watching from unexpected places.

According to the statement, the Israeli occupation placed its bets on the inaction of the Resistance after its forces committed “despicable operations” and the assassinations of its leaders, Martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah at their front. As a result, Hezbollah decided to teach the occupation a lesson, showcasing a fraction of its capabilities, with its leadership choosing the Golani Brigade in Binyamina as the target, which is unknown to settlers. 

The details of the operation

In a complex operation, Hezbollah’s missile force launched tens of missiles at various targets in Nahariya and Akka to trigger the occupation’s Air Defense systems. Hezbollah’s air force then simultaneously deployed swarms of drones of various types, including some that were employed for the first time, toward Akka and Nahariya as well.

The drones successfully pierced through defense radars without being detected, reaching its military target: the training camp of the Golani Brigade in Binyamina, south of the occupied city of Haifa, and detonated in rooms where tens of Israeli occupation soldiers, including senior officers, were preparing participate in the aggression against Lebanon. Tens were confirmed killed and injured. 

The Islamic Resistance vowed, to the noblest and purest people, that it will remain their protective shield and will not allow this cowardly enemy to isolate them. It renewed its promise to its most esteemed and sacred martyr [Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah] that it will continue to defend the land of Lebanon as per the field plans personally overseen by its martyred leaders.

It further warned the enemy that what they witnessed today in southern Haifa is only a small preview of what awaits them if they decide to continue their aggression against Lebanon and its people.

IOF admits four killed 

Earlier on Sunday, a drone attack on the Israeli military base in Binyamina, south of Haifa, has killed four Israelis and wounded 67 others, according to Israeli media.

Notably, Israeli air defense systems failed to detect the drone, which detonated without triggering air raid sirens in the area, as confirmed by Israeli media outlets. 

It was reported that 50 ambulances rushed to the scene to transport the casualties, with helicopters also being called in.

Hezbollah issued a statement in the wake of the operation, claiming responsibility for it. “The Islamic Resistance carried out an operation on the evening of Sunday, October 13, 2024, launching a squadron of attack drones at a training camp of the Golani Brigade in Binyamina, south of Haifa,” the statement read.

The Resistance said the operation was in response to “Israel’s” massacres across Lebanon, particularly its aggression on the Lebanese capital a few days ago.
