Lebanon war is quite interesting. Hezbollah have created underground artillery units that they “activate” when the IDF comes in range. Funny to think only a few months ago people thought Hezbollah no longer existed. 🇮🇱🇱🇧

[Open Source Intel @Osint613]

Hezbollah releases footage showing artillery fire targeting Kiryat Shmona in northern Israel.

Looks like some Chinese ammo

[Middle East Observer @ME_Observer_]

⚡️⭕️ This horrific story just happened earlier today in Lebanon:

Israel called the young man in the car, they asked him if he wants to die alone or with his family in the car.

He left the car and got bombed on the side of the road.

Israel failed to take Bint Jbeil again. Just like 2006. They threw 15,000 troops from the 98th Division plus paratroopers, commandos, and Givati at one town. Bombed it hard, posted a drone photo of the ruined stadium to sell the illusion of victory.

A few dozen Hezbollah fighters held the center with ambushes right up to today's ceasefire. The town never fell.

15,000 IDF troops, an air force, artillery, tanks, and they still failed. South wrecked twice, thousands dead, over a million displaced each round, all for a photo op and a stalled offensive. 26 years later they still can't take the town. Resistance did not break.

[InfoSudLiban @InfoSudLiban]

Après plus de 40 jours d’une guerre acharnée, Khiyam n’est pas tombé et la ville de BintJbeil a tenu bon !

Malgré une force estimée à plus de 15 000 hommes engagés dans l’offensive, et en dépit de destructions massives, de dizaines d’infrastructures détruites et de centaines de moyens de combat découverts dans la zone, selon l’armée israélienne, la ville de BintJbeil n’est pas tombée. Le Hezbollah a tenu.

Sur le reste des fronts, à l’est l’armée israélienne a essayé d’avancer hier à Debnine sans succès.

Après plus de 40 jours de combats, Khiyam n’est toujours pas tombée.

Plus à l’ouest, la situation est plus difficile, où l’armée israélienne a réussi à plus ou moins consolider sa position à Naqoura.

À Chamaa, l’armée israélienne a procédé à la destruction de quasiment toute la ville comme dans tous les villages et villes qu’elle occupe.

Le sud Liban a tenu bon malgré plus de 100 000 soldats, 100 000 occupants.

[Iran Embassy SA @IraninSA]

Of course, this comparison is an insult to Hitler.

[Hala Jaber @HalaJaber]

⚠️So this is the “deal.”

Israel just leaked what it calls a “declaration” reached with Lebanon.

In reality, it is a surrender document.

Lebanon is ordered to disarm Hezbollah, eliminate all non-state armed groups, & ensure only the Lebanese army can bear arms.

In exchange? A 10-day “goodwill pause” that Israel can cancel at any moment.

No Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon.
No end to buffer zones.
No commitment to stop the destruction.

This is not a ceasefire.
This is Israel demanding that Lebanon do what the IDF failed to achieve on the battlefield, ‘crush’ Hezbollah’s military power, while Israel keeps the right to strike whenever it chooses.

The Lebanese government has still not issued a single word confirming or denying this text.

Silence here is dangerous.

This is not peace talks.
This is asking Lebanon to tear itself apart so Israel can get what it wants through ‘diplomacy.’

Beyond shameful.

3 brigades de parachutistes dont la brigade Givati et la brigade blindée 401 donc un peu moins de 15 000 soldats ont été mobilisés pour prendre Bint Jbeil, ville à 4 km de la frontière.

Malgré ça, les israéliens n’ont pas réussis à prendre la ville, face à quelques centaines de combattants sans couverture aérienne. Que quelqu’un actualise le montage en bas pour la bataille de 2026🤣

🔸 L’Iran aurait utilisé un satellite espion chinois acquis en 2024 pour surveiller des bases militaires américaines au Moyen-Orient avant et après des frappes de drones et missiles, selon le Financial Times.

Le satellite TEE-01B, utilisé par les Gardiens de la révolution, aurait notamment capturé des images de bases américaines en mars, dont celle de Prince Sultan en Arabie saoudite, d’après des documents militaires divulgués.

Israel killed Mohammad, his wife Shahinaz, and their daughter Roua today in Qadmous, South Lebanon.

An entire innocent family wiped out.

[Alon Mizrahi @alon_mizrahi]

Bint Jbeil is a longstanding symbol of Lebanese resistance. In the 2006 war, the IDF sent its best ground forces in an attempt to take the village: 8 soldiers died and 25 were seriously injured in the span of a couple of days of intense fighting. Eventually the IDF had to withdraw.
-
This time, though, it appears Bent Jbeil fights harder than ever, costing the IDF even more dearly than 2006, with dozens of casualties, including field commanders, and a huge loss of tanks and equipment.

If the ceasefire begins before Israel can advance into Bint Jbeil in a serious way, it's going to be an even bigger challenge later. Hezbollah is fighting fiercely in 2026

[Hussein of the south @EyesOnSouth1]

Zionists were not able to take Bint Jbeil. Hezbollah fighters did not retreat, they fought while encircled and surrounded. This sums up the Zionist invasion after almost 50 days.

[Elijah J. Magnier 🇪🇺 @ejmalrai]

Before the war, the Lebanese Army destroyed 5000 Hezbollah caches and collected munitions south of the Litani River. When Israel initiated the invasion of Lebanon, Hezbollah rushed with a small number of militants and very little munitions to the front to stop the Israeli advance from reaching deep inside the Lebanese territories.

The Lebanese Resistance achieved the impossible in over 40 days, operating under overwhelming air and artillery power, in addition to 5 divisions (50-70,000 men) trying to advance in the Lebanese territories.
