In one of several operations carried out by Hezbollah, the Lebanese group targeted with “a swarm of attack drones” the Filon base, in northern Israel.
Filon is the headquarters of the Israeli army’s 210th Division. It also serves as the military warehouse in the northern region.
This was one of nine separate statements issued by Hezbollah, which also reported that “a swarm of attack drones” have directly targeted other Israeli military bases in various Israeli settlements.
Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
Al-Qassam Brigades (Hamas)
