| 2024-02-26 | |
| [An Nahar] Hezbollah on Saturday said it fired two heavy-caliber Burkan rockets at a gathering of Israeli troops on the Cobra Hill in northern Israel, achieving a "direct hit." It later said that it targeted a group of Israeli soldiers in the vicinity of the Dhayra military post, also achieving a "direct hit." Israeli warplanes meanwhile targeted a house in the southern border town of Blida and ambulances were scrambling to the site, TV networks said. Israeli artillery shelling also hit the southern border town of Kfarkela. Israeli army front man Avichay Adraee meanwhile said that Israeli warplanes had overnight struck Hezbollah "launchpads and infrastructure" in the Blat mountain area. "An observation post belonging to the organization was also targeted in the Aita al-Shaab area, as the IDF (Israeli army) shelled targets in the Hanine and Marwahine areas to eliminate possible threats," Adraee added. Since October, at least 276 people have been killed on the Lebanese side of the border, most of them Hezbollah fighters but also including 44 civilians. On the Israeli side, 10 soldiers and six civilians have been killed, according to the Israeli army. The fighting has also displaced tens of thousands of residents on both sides of the border and Israel has repeatedly warned that it might use bigger force against Hezbollah to secure its residents' return.
[IsraelTimes] Defense Minister Yoav Gallant says Israel will increase its strikes on Hezbollah in response to its daily attacks on northern Israel, including amid a potential temporary ceasefire in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... Strip. "We are planning to increase the firepower against Hezbollah, which is unable to find replacements for the commanders we are eliminating," Gallant says during a visit to the IDF Northern Command headwaters in Safed. "In the event of a temporary truce in Gaza, we will increase the fire in the north, and will continue until the full withdrawal of Hezbollah [from the border] and the return of the residents to their homes," he says, referring to some 80,000 Israelis displaced by Hezbollah’s attacks. "The goal is simple — to push Hezbollah back to where it should be. Either by agreement, or we will do it by force," Gallant adds. Earlier in the day, the IDF said it struck a Hezbollah cell that was spotted coming out of a building known to be used by the terror group in the south Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... town of Blida. Another two buildings were struck by fighter jets in the same area, the IDF added. The IDF also said that it had earlier intercepted a "suspicious aerial target" that entered Israeli airspace from Lebanon, in the Galilee panhandle. It also shelled rocket launch sites in south Lebanon following attacks on Mount Dov, Kiryat Shmona, Menara and Malkia. Hezbollah said that four of its bad boyz were potted in the Israeli strikes on Sunday, bringing the group’s corpse count since the beginning of the war in Gazoo to 214. | |

| #5 Hey, IDF. The Houthis are a world problem, Skidmore, not an IDF problem. The IDF may turn their attention in that direction after they’ve dealt with Hamas & Co, Hezbollah, and Iran. Or not — by the time Israel is done with Iran, the Houthis are not likely to continue misbehaving. |
