In the early hours of Saturday morning, the tense border between Lebanon and Israel was the site of a fierce clash between the Islamic Resistance and Israeli forces. Hezbollah, a military organization in Lebanon, reported that more than 20 Israelis were either killed or injured during the confrontation that took place from Friday midnight until Saturday morning.
According to a statement released by Hezbollah, the elite soldiers of the Israeli army, backed by artillery and air support, attempted to advance towards the villages of Maroun al-Ras and Yaroun from two different directions. However, their plans were thwarted by the preparedness and quick action of the Islamic Resistance fighters.
As soon as the Israeli forces arrived at their designated ambush points, they were met with a series of explosive devices and faced intense clashes with the Resistance fighters who were armed with light and medium weapons. The fighters also launched rockets at close range, causing significant damage to the invading forces.
Hezbollah reported that the confrontation resulted in several casualties among the Israeli forces. The survivors were forced to evacuate the dead and wounded while being bombarded by artillery fire from Israeli positions within the occupied territories, according to the Xinhua news agency.
The statement also mentioned that the Hezbollah fighters were actively pursuing the Israeli soldiers and targeting their bases and barracks along the border with a barrage of artillery shells and rockets. A Lebanese military source confirmed that a group of about 25 Israeli soldiers managed to penetrate approximately 200 meters into the outskirts of the villages.
This incident comes after a series of intense air attacks by the Israeli army on Lebanon, which began on September 23. The situation has been escalating dangerously between Israel and Hezbollah, and this latest clash is a clear indication of the ongoing tensions between the two sides.
