#Lebanon / #Israel ๐ฑ๐ง๐ฎ๐ฑ: Hezbollah FPV Drone struck Israeli โMerkavaโ in the vicinity of Beaufort Castle (Qal'at al-Shaqif).
Group used a very common โAbabilโ Fiber-Optic FPV Kamikaze Drone; very likely armed with a PG-7L pattern Anti-Tank warhead.
โก๏ธโญ๏ธ Hezbollah releases footage of an FPV strike on a running Israeli soldier:

Early reports now indicate that retaliatory Iranian ballistic missile launches are already underway, amidst what appears to be the resumption of a new round of U.S. strikes on Iran.
IDF soldiers from the Givati Brigade operating north of the Litani River, in the Nabatieh area, captured a Hezbollah weapons cache.
Alongside multiple ammo crates, other equipment, and various small arms (AK-pattern weapons + civilian hunting shotguns/rifles), they notably captured a ๐ฐ๐ต HT-16PGJ MANPAD, an ๐ฎ๐ท AM-50 Sayyad anti-materiel rifle, and a civilian FPV drone.
With Iran's large-scale missile attack on northern Israel, it's safe to say the already fragile ceasefire will effectively be over, as tit-for-tat strikes between Israel and Iran will likely occur.

Iranโs Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) have previously conditioned the resumption of strikes against Israel on Israelโs potential targeting of Beirut.
Footage posted by Hezbollah shows the launch of Sayyad-107 and Shahed-101 kamikaze drones towards IDF positions in the towns of Odaisseh and Yuhmor al-Shaqif.
Yuhmor al-Shaqif notably is one of the few towns Israel controls north of the Litani river, and serves as a forward position for further advances into the Nabatieh-area.
Interestingly in a recent post, the anti-Hamas militant group Popular Forces' northern branch claimed to have "conducted cyberattacks" against Hamas, and "taken control of 60% of Hamas's electronic devices and systems"
These claims are certainly false, as upon further inspection, a Python script featured in the video is just a random name and number generator.
