HEZBOLLAH has destroyed an ISRAELI IRON DOME system in Ramot Naftali.

Western long range systems are almost totally static systems(patriot, iron dome etc.) The key target of iron dome is its radar. Interceptor box when destroyed creates a huge mess with all its rockets exploding there that is also good but the radar should be the main target disabling the whole system. Iranian satellite picture analysis + Hezbollah precision tactical bms would do the job well and raise the costs against the fascist entity. Some drones of Hezbollah can carry elint pods(If Iran developed this technology or obtained from abroad like Russia) that will give rough estimation about radar positions from long ranges like they can detect radars even flying within Labennon airspace. These elint drones can be reused as well. After that detailed satellite photos can be analysed to determine radar locations and then strike them. Iraqi resistance can also detect isr radars and early warning sensors like for example in Golan area if they have drones having elint pods.
After iron dome radar is taken out massively effective rocket attacks can be easily made over that area.

Israel strikes Lebanon's Tyre, close to site of ancient Roman ruins​

Reuters Smoke billows after Israeli strikes in the southern Lebanese city of Tyre (23 October 2024) - the coast of Tyre is visible from the water, with a number of mid-sized tower blocks and trees visible on Tyre's beach.

Civilians fled several central neighbourhoods of Tyre shortly before the strikes
Israel has carried out at least four air strikes on the historic Lebanese port city of Tyre, hours after expanding its evacuation orders to cover several central neighbourhoods.

Videos showed huge clouds of black smoke rising from a seafront area that is only a few hundred metres from Unesco World Heritage-listed Roman ruins.

Lebanon’s state news agency said the strikes caused “massive destruction” to homes and infrastructure, but there were no reports of any casualties.

The Israeli military said it targeted command-and-control centres of Hezbollah, including its Southern Front headquarters.

The military’s Arabic spokesman had earlier issued a map of the neighbourhoods where he said it was going to act “forcefully” against the Iran-backed armed group.

Tens of thousands of residents had already fled the city in recent weeks in response to Israel’s intense air campaign and ground invasion.

But before the strikes began, a spokesman for a disaster management unit said about 14,000 people were still living in the city, including those displaced from elsewhere in the south.

“You could say that the entire city of Tyre is being evacuated," Bilal Kashmar told AFP news agency, adding that many people were heading towards the suburbs.

Israeli strikes target Hezbollah-linked financial association in Lebanon​

Israel has carried out air strikes targeting branches of a financial association linked with Hezbollah in the southern suburbs of Lebanon’s capital Beirut, as well as the south and east of the country.

There were chaotic scenes in parts of Beirut late on Sunday, as people tried to get to areas that they thought would be safer and multiple explosions were heard.

The Israeli military said it targeted money held by Al-Qard Al-Hassan Association (AQAH). It offers financial services to civilians in areas where Hezbollah has strong support, but Israel and the US accuse it of being a cover for the Iran-backed group to fund its activities.

There was no immediate comment from AQAH or Hezbollah.

The attacks appeared to mark an expansion of Israel’s war against Hezbollah, going beyond military infrastructure used by the group.

They took place hours before US President Joe Biden’s special envoy to the Middle East arrived in Beirut to explore the possibility of a negotiated end to the war.

Israel began an intense air campaign and ground invasion against Hezbollah after almost a year of cross-border fighting sparked by the war in Gaza, saying it wanted to ensure the safe return of tens of thousands of residents of Israeli border areas displaced by rocket attacks.

Hezbollah began firing rockets into northern Israel in support of Palestinians on 8 October 2023, the day after its ally Hamas’s deadly attack on Israel.

More than 2,400 people have been killed in Lebanon since then, including 1,800 in the past five weeks, according to the country’s health ministry. Israeli authorities say 59 people have been killed in northern Israel and the occupied Golan Heights.

The Israeli air strikes targeting branches of AQAH happened about 20 minutes after the Israeli military issued evacuation orders, at around 21:30 local time (18:30 GMT) on Sunday.

According to the Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency (NNA), there were 11 attacks on Dahieh, in southern Beirut.

Videos posted on social media showed one AQAH branch on fire in the Laylaki area, only 500m (1,800ft) away from the runway of Lebanon’s only functioning commercial airport, and another just to the north in Burj al-Barajneh. A third video showed a multi-storey building where there was an AQAH branch collapsing in the Chiyah area.

Israeli strikes hit Dahieh​

“Dahieh was originally a very beautiful place but all the wars have taken their toll,” said Rasha al-Ameer, a novelist and publisher who was born and raised in the suburb and still lives there. Her brother, a prominent critic of Hezbollah, was assassinated in Lebanon in 2021.

“It is still a very vivid place and a diverse place. We have a cultural institution there and a lot of political activity,” she said. “It would be a terrible thing if Dahieh was destroyed. Though the bombing has destroyed much already.”

As well as homes, the Israeli air strikes have destroyed or damaged shops, businesses, restaurants and clinics. “Destruction on destruction,” said Mohaned Khalaf, a 45-year-old Sunni Muslim bakery worker, of his street in Burj El Brajneh, the most heavily targeted part of the suburb.

Khalaf, already a refugee once, from Syria, has gone back into Dahieh periodically to check on the apartment he shares with his two brothers and their mother, to see if his furniture remains. “The buildings around ours have been destroyed,” he said. “There is no life left there, not a person to be seen.”

The destruction has tested some Dahieh residents’ patience with Hezbollah – particularly Sunnis and other non-Shias. “This war is hurting everyone,” said Khalaf’s mother, Sameera, who wept on the street. “I am 63 years old,” she said. “I just want a place where I can wash.”

Sameera does not want to return to Dahieh, even after the war. “Yes, we could go back and rebuild, but Hezbollah and Israel will fight this war over and over again,” she said. “And Dahieh will suffer again.”

Shia Muslims, Hezbollah’s more natural support base, took a more supportive view – even those whose lives had been completely upended by the conflict. Members of Hezbollah had handed out food and $100 bills to displaced Shia families on the streets in central Beirut, several families said, and helped assist with shelter places.

“We used to support Hezbollah and we still support Hezbollah,” said Gharib Ali, a 61-year-old janitor who fled the suburb. Around him, his family nodded in agreement. The effect of the war on their lives “changes nothing for the Shia community,” he said. “If anything, it only increases our support. Every Shia feels the same.”

In this way, Mehdi and Zahraa may be something of an outlier – a Lebanese Shia couple, residents of Dahieh for decades, who were critical of Hezbollah for its role in the conflict.

“Dahieh is not Hezbollah, we are not Hezbollah, our building was not Hezbollah,” Zahraa said, angrily. “We went to sleep one night and woke up in someone else’s war.”

The family’s apartment is now uninhabitable, though the building may be salvageable. The Israeli army has sometimes issued social media warnings ahead of its air strikes, but there was no warning for the strike that hit Mehdi and Zahraa’s building. Their eldest son had gone home that day to shower, taking advantage of a seemingly quiet moment, and was knocked over and cut by flying glass when the bomb hit.

International humanitarian law generally requires an effective advance warning ahead of a strike that might affect civilians. But the BBC has found evidence of repeated Israeli strikes against Dahieh and other parts of Beirut where no warning was issued. And where there were warnings, some have been sent as little as 30 minutes beforehand, sometimes in the middle of the night.

“That timeframe is not an effective advance warning for someone who lives in Dahieh,” said Ramzi Keiss, a Lebanon researcher at Human Rights Watch. “These are people are sleeping, they’re in their beds. They are not looking at social media."

Hezbollah was also possibly violating international humanitarian law, Keiss said, by placing its military commanders in and around the civilian population. “But that doesn’t give you a free pass to bomb as heavily as you can,” he added, referring to Israel.

“When you’re using 2000lbs in densely populated areas, you’re going to put civilians at the risk of great harm.”

Lebanese officials estimate that more than 2,400 people have been killed in the country over the past year and more than 1.2 million been displaced. Israel says 59 people have been killed in northern Israel and the occupied Golan Heights over the same period.

“Dahieh is not Hezbollah, we are not Hezbollah, our building was not Hezbollah,” Zahraa said, angrily. “We went to sleep one night and woke up in someone else’s war.”

This shows the sectarian idiocy the Lebanese have normalized. That is why they have not done anything as a state to protect themselves. Israel has done massive acts of war and war crimes against Lebanon and it should, obviously, be Lebanon's war. But, the Lebanese have normalized killing and discriminating other Lebanese on the basis of sect, religion, or personal rivalry. They can't unite against a settler colonial danger next door which claims Lebanon as Greater Israel. They are so sectarian they can't think in terms of Israel as a danger which can destroy Lebanon whenever it wants.

Hezbollah has reportedly launched 13 attacks on Israeli targets in a single day, utilizing advanced BURKAN and FALAQmissiles. This escalation is part of the ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel, which has intensified significantly since the start of the latest hostilities.

Key Details:​

  • Attack Overview: The missile strikes targeted various locations in northern Israel, including military installations and civilian areas. Hezbollah claimed that these attacks were precise and aimed at military objectives.
  • Casualties and Damage: While specific casualty figures from this series of attacks have not been detailed, the Israeli military has been on high alert, with air raid sirens sounding in cities like Tel Aviv and other northern regions as a response to the incoming missile threats.
  • Context of the Attacks: This wave of assaults follows a period of increased military engagement between Hezbollah and Israeli forces, particularly after the assassination of key Hezbollah leaders by Israeli airstrikes. The recent attacks are seen as a retaliation against Israeli operations that have targeted Hezbollah's infrastructure and personnel.
  • Military Response: The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been actively intercepting incoming missiles and responding with their own strikes against Hezbollah positions in Lebanon. The ongoing conflict has raised concerns about further escalation in the region.
This situation underscores the volatile nature of the Israel-Hezbollah conflict, with both sides engaging in aggressive military actions that could lead to broader regional instability.
