Israel Unleashes Punishing Strikes On Over 100 Fully-Loaded Hezbollah Rocket Launchers As IDF Turns Away From Gaza To Focus On Their Northern Border

Israel carried out dozens of strikes on Thursday across southern Lebanon, in what Lebanese security sources said were some of the most intense bombings since Hezbollah began daily cross-border attacks on northern communities after the start of the Gaza war on October 7.

For all the years that Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has vowed to “destroy Israel!!”, for all his tough talk, Israel has finally granted his wish and brought the fight to Lebanon, and guess what? So far there has been almost no reaction or response from Hezbollah. Maybe it’s because they are quietly preparing a massive retaliation that will stun the world, or more likely, they are terrified of the IDF after watching thousands of their soldiers being blown up in next-level pager and walkie talkie attacks.

“Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.” Zechariah 11:1 (KJB)

Here’s an interesting tidbit that no one seems to be talking about. The war cabinet in Israel has approved a decision that authorizes Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Gallant to decide between themselves whether to take action against Hezbollah, which would ultimately lead to an all-out war in Lebanon. The two alone are now authorized “to take defensive and offensive actions against Hezbollah in order to fulfill Israel’s war goals.” How did that happen? Sole power to invade Lebanon to destroy Israel placed in the hands of only two people? That’s stunning, to say the least. It will be quite interesting to see where things go from here.

IDF hits more than 100 loaded Hezbollah launchers in series of major Lebanon strikes

FROM THE TIMES OF ISRAEL: The military said fighter jets had struck over 100 Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon that were primed for immediate attacks on Israel. It said that in total, the launchers included around 1,000 launch barrels. Several buildings and a weapons depot belonging to Hezbollah were also struck in several areas of southern Lebanon, according to the military. The strikes began in the afternoon and were carried out in several waves.

“The IDF continues to damage and degrade the terror capabilities and military infrastructure of the Hezbollah terror organization,” the military added.

The major airstrikes came after a heavy barrage of rockets from Lebanon on northern communities, and as the Israeli defense establishment put preparations for a possible all-out war with Hezbollah into full gear. Eli Bin, head of the Magen David Adom rescue service, told the Ynet news site that he had received reports that an MDA station in Metula suffered a direct hit. There were no injuries reported, he said.

Earlier on Thursday, two IDF soldiers, Maj. (res.) Nael Fwarsy, 43, a logistics company commander from Maghar, and Sgt. Tomer Keren, 20, of the Golani Brigade’s 51st Battalion, from Haifa, were killed in Hezbollah missile and drone attacks on northern Israel. Nine soldiers were also wounded in the attacks.

Also Thursday, as Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah delivered a televised address, vowing revenge on Israel for this week’s deadly wave of explosions of portable devices belonging to the terror group’s operatives in Lebanon and Syria, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant held a situational assessment on what he called “a new phase in the war.”

Gallant said that the IDF would continue strikes in Lebanon in order to fulfill the newly officialized war goal of returning displaced northern residents to their homes. READ MORE
