| [IsraelNationalNews] IDF soldiers uncovered weapons stored inside underground compounds located from a few dozen meters up to a few hundred meters from UNIFIL posts situated near the Blue Line. The IDF revealed on Sunday that over the past month, approximately 25 rockets and missiles have been launched at Israeli communities and IDF troops from Hezbollah’s terrorist compounds embedded near UNIFIL posts in southern Lebanon, exploiting their proximity to UN forces. One of the attacks resulted in the deaths of two IDF soldiers. According to the IDF, Hezbollah uses compounds located above and below ground to carry out terrorist attacks against the State of Israel.
"UNIFIL in southern Lebanon was deployed to implement UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and prevent the presence of Hezbollah armed operatives south of the Litani River. However, both the State of Lebanon and the international community have failed to implement Resolution 1701, despite repeated requests to do so," the IDF stated. "For years, Hezbollah has embedded itself in southern Lebanon in grave violation of UN Security Council resolutions. The organization has stockpiled large quantities of weapons aimed at Israeli civilians over the years and has deliberately built up its attack infrastructure near UNIFIL posts," it added. The IDF stressed that its targeted raids are only directed against Hezbollah, and the troops’ activities are not directed at UNIFIL posts, forces, or infrastructure. On Thursday, September 30th, prior to the start of the operation, IDF representatives submitted a request to the organization to move its personnel away from posts located within five kilometers of the Blue Line, as this area would become an active combat zone. The IDF noted that it maintains continuous communication with UNIFIL to avoid, as much as possible, any harm to UNIFIL personnel in the area and will continue to do so, despite the complexities of the UNIFIL's presence inside the combat zone.

| #4 50-32 years old is the tech supplied by USA.THAAD and whatever. Ukraine has demonstrated failure of systems especially when you introduce supersonic. F-16 Fighting Falcon is over 50 years old. I suppose that is why it is a no show in Ukraine. It was my understanding Iran has and will use supersonic. Unstoppable. Then Israel has a complete lock down on information. The last thing they want is for them to look bad militarily. So information will get out eventually. |

| #3 Drones, yes. But those drones did not kill anyone, Dale. Almost exclusively they are knocked down by Israeli defenses or hit open fields. The people they were intended to kill have been living in hotels in central Israel for almost a year, waiting for Hezbollah to be cleared out so they can go back to their farms and wineries. (The Rothschilds planted French vines there over a century ago — the wines are well known among those who drink kosher wines.) |

| #2 Yesterday evening internet was a buss with 300 rockets/ drones? launched at Israel. 100 dead. This is getting to be like the news reported about Ukraine and Russia. Previous Iran launching misreported as well as satellite pictures tell the true story. Iran targeted military not civilians. As I said before, the fog of war. |
