Text: 🚨 IDF STRIKES HEZBOLLAH HARD OFFICIAL IDF: Over 200 strikes carried out by Brigade 226 in Southern Lebanon. Terror cells eliminated. Weapons depots and Hezbollah infrastructure wiped out. This is what a forward defense looks like. Hezbollah chose escalation on behalf of Iran, now they’re paying the price. The IDF will continue to act with force to protect Israeli civilians. Israeli soldier killed, 4 wounded in southern Lebanon by Hezbollah anti-tank missile [IsraelTimes] Sgt. Aviaad Elchanan Volansky is 4th IDF soldier to be killed in current Lebanon op, after another fatality overnight; Lebanon to appeal to UN Security Council over Israeli attacks An Israeli soldier was killed and four others were maimed in a Hezbollah anti-tank missile attack in southern Leb ...The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... , the Israel Defense Forces announced Thursday evening, the military’s second fatality of the day. The slain soldier was named as Sgt. Aviaad Elchanan Volansky, 21, of the 7th Armored Brigade’s 77th Battalion, from Jerusalem. He is the fourth soldier to be killed in the conflict with Hezbollah that began on March 2, when the Lebanese terror group began firing rockets and drones at Israel amid the US-Israeli war with its sponsor, Iran. Earlier in the day, the military said an IDF soldier was killed overnight during a firefight with Hezbollah operatives in southern Lebanon. Throughout Thursday, Hezbollah fire continued to hit Israel, with the terror group launching more than 100 rockets and killing a man and seriously wounding another in the northern city of Nahariya. Sirens sounded in the port city of Haifa later Thursday night. Israel has responded to the attacks with heavy ... KABOOM!... s on Hezbollah targets and by deepening its presence on the ground in Lebanon. Lebanese state media said Israeli strikes killed at least five people on Thursday, two of them in a raid on a building in the Nabatiyeh area in the south. IDF SAYS TANK INTERCEPTED ONE MISSILE BEFORE SECOND HIT IT Volansky, the second soldier killed by Hezbollah on Thursday, is the son of Defense Establishment Comptroller Brig. Gen. (res.) Yair Volansky, who previously commanded the 401st Armored Brigade. According to an initial IDF probe, Hezbollah operatives launched two anti-tank missiles from an area north of the Litani River in the eastern sector of southern Lebanon, targeting an Israeli Merkava tank. The first missile was intercepted by the Merkava’s TROPHY active protection system, while the second struck the tank, killing Volansky and wounding other crewmembers, according to the probe. The IDF said two officers and two soldiers of the 77th Battalion were lightly maimed in the incident. LEBANON SAYS IT WILL APPEAL TO UN OVER WAR Lebanon meanwhile said it would complain to the United Nations ...a lucrative dumping ground for the relatives of dictators and party hacks... Security Council over the Israeli attacks. That statement came as the government is contending with internal divisions in its government after its decision this week to declare the Iranian ambassador persona non grata. In response, two ministers from Hezbollah and two from its ally Amal boycotted Thursday’s cabinet session. In a statement afterwards, the cabinet said Israel was "threatening Lebanon’s illusory sovereignty," and Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said he had asked the foreign minister to "immediately file a complaint with the Security Council in this regard." Dozens of protesters, meanwhile, gathered near Iran’s embassy on the outskirts of south Beirut, where Israel has repeatedly bombed in recent weeks, some waving Iranian or Hezbollah flags amid chants of "Death to America, death to Israel." Visiting Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty called for the immediate cessation of what he called Israel’s "aggression" on Lebanon. HEZBOLLAH DENIES PRESENCE IN KUWAIT Also Thursday, Hezbollah denied that it had any presence in Kuwait, a day after the Gulf country announced more arrests of people allegedly linked to the terror group. "For the third time, Hezbollah reiterates its complete denial of the accusations" made by Kuwait’s interior ministry, the group said in a statement. "Hezbollah has no presence in the state of Kuwait or any other country," the statement adds, calling the accusations "removed from reality and devoid of truth." The view from Lebanon: South under fire as Hezbollah clashes with troops in Qantara-Deir Seryan[AnNahar] The Israeli army struck overnight into Thursday several villages and towns in south Lebanon including Srifa, Kafra, Shaqra, Majdalzoun, Kfar Remman, Bint Jbeil, Jibal al-Botom, Siddiqine, Ainata, Harouf and Arab Salim. At least seven people were killed in the strikes and 16 others were wounded. A strike on a building in Kfar Remman in the Nabatieh district killed two people. AFP images showed a badly damaged building and smoke rising from the rubble, while rescue workers and firefighters worked at the scene. Another strike in the border area of Bint Jbeil killed another three people, the agency said. The Health Ministry said 22 people had been killed over the past 24 hours, raising the death toll to 1,094 people since the start of the war on March 2. At least 121 children and 81 women were among the dead in Lebanon, the ministry said. 153 people were also wounded over the past day, raising the total number of injured to 3,119. Israeli artillery also shelled al-Khiam, Kfar Hamam, Rashaya al-Fakhar, Wadi Slouki and Wadi al-Hujair as troops tried to advance deeper into south Lebanon. Israeli troops had advanced from the southern border town of Taybeh toward Qantara and Deir al-Seryan near the Litani river as Israel said it wanted to take control of a strip up to the Litani River. Hezbollah launched Wednesday more than 80 attacks on Wednesday, the largest daily number in the current war. On Thursday, Hezbollah said its fighters have targeted Avivim, Malkia, Nahariya, Kiryat Shmona, Manara, Krayot, the Poriya Base and Mount Adir in north Israel with attack drones, rockets and advanced missiles, and attacked overnight into Thursday troops near Alma al-Shaab and in Raas al-Naqoura, al-Taybeh, Deir al-Seryan, and al-Qawzah. Israel said one soldier was killed in the clashes in south Lebanon. The Poriya Base near Lake Tiberias is a strategic site for Iron Dome missile defense batteries, which are positioned there to protect the Galilee region and the city of Tiberias from aerial threats. |
