🗞️ Israeli Minister of Defense visits the northern command and announces:

- Intention to increase the level of firepower against Hezbullah
- Increase of assassinations against its field commanders
- Continue fighting in Lebanon even after the end of the war in Gaza or ceasefire

He adds a bold claim of intention to drive Hezbullah back away from the border.

🗣️ Hezbullah | Our basic principle is to rely on God Almighty

🗞 Jewish Journalist Almog Boker told Channel 7:

"The day after the war, if even a single (harmless) balloon is launched from the Gaza Strip, the area from which the balloon was launched will be completely destroyed.

It can be a mosque, a private house or a school, but if they want to destroy our children, any terrorism must be destroyed.”

🗞️ Israeli Minister of Finance in a message for the settlers in the North:

"Thank you for waiting and being patient. We have extended your hotel stay till the end of the academic year."

📝 One of the Israeli prepositions for Hamas is to agree that the prisoners with high prison sentences be exiled instead of being allowed to return to Gaza or the West Bank.

Like it or not, this preposition is in favour of Hamas. Letting the high rank prisoners to go to Lebanon, Qatar, and Turkey would ensure safety for them and freedom to operate and enhance cooperation with the Axis of the Resistance.

This will also allow them to rehabilitate without fear of being killed or imprisoned again, and then undergeo leadership and military training in Lebanon, Iran, or Syria.

Unfortunately Hamas is at a certain disadvantage and this exact compromise is in its favour to achieve maximalist results under current stakes and events.

To win this war, Hamas has to survive as an entity and not lose control of Gaza.

For that, flexibility will be needed to defeat the Israeli objectives while entertaining some Israeli demands.

📹 Hezbullah released footage of their attacks on Israeli bases on 23-24 Feb, attacking Malkiah and Zar'it bases.

✈️ Israeli police is investigating a possible drone crash in Tiberias near a few buildings.

📹 The drone has probably crashed into a building, judging by the angle of the police.

This could be one of the many one-way surveillance drones Hezbullah is firing towards Israel and not taking credit for.

🌷 The U.S. Air Force confirms to Fox they an active duty American airman was involved in the self immolation act in front of the Israeli Embassy today - a protest against what he rightfully described as a genocide in Gaza.

“I’m about to engage in an extreme act of protest,” he says calmly, walking down a street.

"But compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.”

✈️ UAV alerts in the Golan Heights.

🗞️ Not long after, the Israeli army carried a series of airstrikes on Bodai, Baalbek city in North eastern Lebanon.

🗞️ Earlier this morning, Hezbullah shot down an Israeli Hermes - 450 UAV on a combat mission, making it the first confirmed shoot down in this battle.

📷 Another angle from Baalbeck. This is the first time Baalbek was attacked and a major escalation.

📹 Aftemath of the Israeli airstrike in Baalbek, that destroyed a house and a food goods centers.

The long range attack was in response to shooting down the Israeli UAV.

🗞️ And in continuation of their freakout mode after the shooting of the UAV, the Israeli army attacked the hills between Al-Rafia' and Jermeq mountains

📷 Additionally, a targeted assassination took place in Al-Majadel village.

🗞️ And just now, the Israeli army carried a violent attack on homes on the border village of Aita Al-Shaab.

🗞️ According to the Israeli army, they fired a David Sling advanced air defence missile to intercept Hezbullah's air defence missile.

They were successful. However, Hezbullah fired again unlike previous times and so, shot down successfully the Hermes - 450 UAV

The Israeli army is maybe the only army today using air defense to protect its air forces inside enemy territory beyond border.

In response to shooting it down, the Israeli army claims to have attacked air defence related assets in Baalbek, as a retaliation to encur a heavy price on Lebanon's actions.

- Shtula settlement
- Branit barracks
