@Middle_East_Spectator

Israeli authorities have declared a “special situation” for 48 hours amid reports that Hezbollah is launching a large-scale attack, the Times of Israel reported citing the country's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

Israel's military-political cabinet will hold an emergency meeting at 07.00 Moscow time Sunday, the newspaper said, citing the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will convene the political-military cabinet at 07.00 am,” the report said.

‍ Ali Haidar, writer for Al-Akhbar Newspaper:

The Israeli media's promotion of a preemptive strike is aimed at covering up its failure to thwart Hezbollah's initial response...

That is why it was followed by reports claiming that Hezbollah intended to launch 1,000 rockets and target Tel Aviv... in an attempt to suggest that Hezbollah wanted to do more than it actually did!

‍ Reliable Al Mayadeen information:

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon's response to the assassination of Martyr Fouad Shukr was executed with the highest levels of precision and success.

What the occupation has stated so far about what it called thwarting Hezbollah's operation is military lies, media claims, and internal deception of its own society.

What the Resistance planned in its retaliatory operation was fully executed despite the extensive and directed Israeli media blackout.

The occupation's heightened state of alert, with more than one warplane in Lebanese airspace all night, did not prevent a single rocket or drone from reaching their targets.

The core of the Resistance's retaliatory operation was the drones that hit a vital military target, while the 320 rockets were used to distract the Iron Dome systems and Israel's defensive capabilities.

The Israeli occupation is lying, and everything it promotes through its military media about thwarting an attack involving more than a thousand rockets, including precision missiles, is a false claim and does not exist at all.

The Islamic Resistance struck a vital military target deep within the entity of the occupation, not on its outskirts.

Hezbollah hit its targets despite the occupation's reliance on significant American intelligence and operational support.

The Resistance's retaliation for the assassination of Martyr Fouad Shukr succeeded despite the full Israeli alert that lasted for over a month.

The Resistance's first statement was accurate in warning the occupation against targeting civilians in Lebanon, as the response to that would be very harsh.

@ResistanceTrench

‍ A Source in Hezbollah to Al-Arabi TV:

Israel did not succeed in launching a preemptive strike against us.

The targets Israel is talking about were a response to a deceptive attack we carried out.

The Israeli army failed to intercept the assault drones.

We succeeded in misleading the Israeli army by launching a large number of rockets.

We bombed two key targets in northern Tel Aviv, which we will announce later.

‍ Statement issued by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon (Statement No. 3)

By the grace of Allah, all attack drones were launched at their scheduled times and from all their launch sites, crossing the Lebanese-Palestinian border towards their intended targets from multiple routes. Thus, our military operation for today has been successfully completed, praise be to Allah.

The enemy's claims regarding their preemptive actions, their supposed achievements, and their disruption of the Resistance's attack are baseless and contradict the realities on the ground. These claims will be refuted in a speech by the Secretary General of Hezbollah, His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, to be delivered later today.

@ResistanceTrench

Lebanon's Hezbollah said it fired more than 320 rockets at Israel in the early hours of August 25.

The movement claims that 11 military infrastructure facilities were hit, some of them in the Golan Heights.

Israel carried out strikes on southern Lebanon the day before. The government called them preventive. Prime Minister Netanyahu said that "thousands of missiles" were destroyed in this way (apparently while still on the ground).

Israeli authorities say two hundred Lebanese rockets have been launched. Airports in the country have been closed.

NEW: BBC correspondent:

The israeli regime issued a series of new censorship regulations for media that includes the damage caused by rocket attacks to “strategic national infrastructure or to military bases.”

Reporters need to refer them to the media office before reporting on them to avoid causing any “harm to Israeli forces on the ground”.

“This morning attacks by Hezbollah has the potential to escalate into a widespread, multi-front conflict.” The decree warns

Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah explains delay in Hezbollah retaliation:

America, Israel and all their supporters were on alert and waiting for Hezbollah's response. We were waiting and wanted to give time to the Gaza ceasefire negotiations. Because all our actions are for the sake of Gaza.

Finally, we decided to answer alone; For various reasons.

Seyed Hassan Nasrallah:

“We reserved the rights to attack civilian targets since the enemy attacked civilians in Lebanon. But we only chose military targets to attack.”

Fotros Resistance (AryJeay), [25/8/2024 12:34]
Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah:

We didn’t want to target close targets, or even Haifa, we went as far as choosing targets close to Tel Aviv!

We targeted the Glilot base [Sayyed gives exact directions where this base is located] near Tel Aviv, which houses the MOSSAD headquarters and several intelligence units, including Unit 8200, where they carry out many terror operations and intelligence manipulations.

We fired Katyusha missiles so that our drones could reach their targets easily. Despite the enemy's attacks, all the prepared rockets and drones were fired.

Fotros Resistance (AryJeay), [25/8/2024 13:08]
Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah:

The enemy claimed to have targeted 6,000 rockets and drones and rejoiced thwarting an attack. Their Hollywood imagination even took them as far as to claim they bombed our heavy missiles. Of course, none of this is true.

The time assigned for the operation was after Fajr prayer at 5:15 am. All rockets and drone launchers were set and programed from the night before. Our launchers were north of the Litani river and south of it, and also in the Beqaa.

All rocket & drone platforms worked effectively with no exceptions. Not a single platform was hit before the start or after the operation. We fired not only 300 but 340 rockets. The raids the enemy carried out failed to target even a single platform.

The enemy's narrative was very contradicting, and many from the entity advised Netanyahu to adjust his statements before 6 pm since "someone" 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.

The enemy failed to target even a single Katyusha launcher today, let alone a launcher of our heavy missiles. Their "preemptive attack" achieved absolutely nothing & did not even slightly affect the course of our operation which did better than expected.

The enemy did not even touch our ballistic missiles which we did not have the intention of using today to begin with. However, we may use them in the future as we see fit. All the valleys the enemy bombed today were empty.

To add more, many times our forces leave some launchers behind in open spaces after carrying out an attack, and the enemy still does not target them. And even if the enemy targeted a couple of $10k launchers in 200 raids, so what?

The most sophisticated Katyusha launchers that we would spend generously on would cost no more than $10k. And to us, the lives of our Mujahideen (Hezbollah members) using them are much more valuable.

Our data reveals that a number of our drones reached both targets successfully. However, as usual, the enemy conceals and applies their policy of censorship on the losses.

The enemy's airstrikes started only 30 minutes before the beginning of our operation and that was when they sensed the movements of the Mujahideen; it was not based on any intelligence information. This is natural as the enemy has been highly alert.

The Resistance was bravely able to carry out this operation despite all American and Western intimidation efforts. We paralyzed the "israeli" entity with nothing but a bunch of Katyusha rockets. What would happen if we used other missiles?

“Either show that the facilities were actually hit so that Hezbollah would consider the operation complete, or continue to be on high alert awaiting another response,” said Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah

According to the Secretary General of Hezbollah, Glilot and Ein Shemer bases in occupied territories were targeted by suicide drones.

Ein Shemer base:
— This base is a multi-layered missile air defense base protected by Arrow, David's Sling and Iron Dome air defense systems. This base is the headquarters of the Menashe Regional Brigade and its airport runway is the test site for various drones.

— Ein Shemer base is 72 km away from the southern border of Lebanon.

Glilot base:
— Glilot base is the main headquarters of the Israeli Military Intelligence (Aman) and its subordinate "Unit 8200", as well as the school of communications of the military intelligence department.

— This area is located in the north of Tel Aviv and is 110 km away from the Lebanese border.

/ Hezbollah Suspected Of Jamming Israeli Army’s Defense System

Military analysts are of the opinion that the mistaken strike of the Tamir missile that targeted the Israeli Dvora-class fast boat may have been caused by Hezbollah’s sophisticated electronic warfare and jamming of the regime’s radar system.

Experts are probing into the possibility that Hezbollah used electronic warfare tactics to hamper the missile guidance system or generate a deceptive radar target that would mislead Iron Dome to detect the Israeli army boat as a hostile target.

The incident highlights the complexity and significance of modern warfare, which is a battlefield where other parties’ electronic warfare and radar deception jamming can have devastating repercussions. Reports published so far show that the Israeli regime would strengthen its defensive measures following the fatal incident.
