In a powerful message on Saturday, Hezbollah urged residents of more than twenty Israeli settlements to evacuate immediately, declaring them legitimate targets of the resistance’s air and missile forces.
Hezbollah’s statement emphasized that these settlements have become hubs for the occupying military forces conducting aggressive actions against Lebanon. “Your settlements have turned into places of deployment and occupation for enemy military forces attacking Lebanon. By this reality, they are now legitimate military targets for the Islamic resistance’s aerial and missile power,” the statement declared.
In a similar warning on Telegram, Hezbollah also targeted specific areas within the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

South Lebanon: Resistance Forces Engage Israeli Military Near Key Border Points
In southern Lebanon, Hezbollah carried out coordinated rocket barrages targeting Israeli troop concentrations around Ayta ash-Sha’ab, Al-Mashirfa near Rosh HaNikra, and east of the town of Marqaba. These strategic strikes in the border area emphasize Hezbollah’s continued commitment to resisting Israeli encroachments and ensuring that any military aggression incurs direct and immediate consequences.
The Message of Resistance
Hezbollah’s intensified operations and direct messages to Israeli settlers reflect a calculated response to the escalating aggression from the Israeli occupation. This resistance strategy underscores Hezbollah’s determination to confront occupation forces and their encroachments on Lebanese sovereignty. With each strike and statement, Hezbollah signals its resolve to uphold the rights and dignity of Lebanon and the wider Palestinian cause in the face of occupation and aggression.
As the resistance continues its defensive operations, it reiterates a message of steadfastness to the people of Lebanon, Palestine, and supporters of the regional resistance front: occupation forces will face unwavering resistance wherever their aggression reaches.
