Ok, listen to this:
President Biden asked Netanyahu to stop the attacks on Beirut.
We haven’t attacked there for 2-3 days.
Today’s assault UAVs were brought from Hezbollah’s UAVs depot in Beirut.
We should NEVER listen to BIDEN!

Hezbollah apparently used fiber-optic drones, a technology primarily employed by Russia in Ukraine

These drones are undetectable by radars hard to intercept, posing a significant threat to Israel’s defenses

Media silence is going forth currently with everything going on. Saw this an hour ago, but the rumor mill indicated that tonight’s drone attack was targeting Herzi Halevi, Chief of Staff of the Israeli army.

This would be HUGE if true.

Yesterday, Halevi celebrated Yom Kippur at the military base that was attacked by Hezbollah. BUT, According to Israeli correspondents, he was not present at the time of the attack.

Preliminary investigation shows that the Hezbollah UAV was a Mirsad-1 Iranian one with a payload of 20KG explosive.
All the more reason to strike the head of the octopus!

Today’s attacks by Hezbollah were VERY HIGH in numbers vs the “normal” of 20ish per day. Hezbollah launched 38 different attacks/Operations on Sunday, October 13th.

Hezbollah specifically focused on Targeting the gatherings of Israeli soldiers, hitting Israeli bases & settlements.

Israel has not retaliated yet tonight which is very bizarre, compared to what we just saw a few days and nights ago.

Not sure what Israel had planned. BUT, I’d expect that the Israeli airstrikes will resume on the southern suburbs of Beirut. And ALL of Lebanon for that matter.

Soon.

Israel has some surprises for Hezbollah.

How Hezbollah’s Mirsad-1 drone breached Israeli defenses in Binyamina - explainer


Hezbollah's drone strike near Binyamina on Sunday, which left 67 people wounded, showcases the growing threat posed by drones in modern warfare. The drone used in this attack is believed to be the Mirsad-1, a drone that Hezbollah has deployed for over two decades, originating from Iranian designs.

The Mirsad-1, as noted by experts from the Alma Research Center, is based on Iran's Mohajer-2 model, with slight modifications tailored for Hezbollah’s operations. The drone can carry up to 40 kilograms of explosives, has a top speed of 370 kilometers per hour, and boasts an operational range of 120 kilometers. Hezbollah has utilized the Mirsad-1 for reconnaissance and offensive strikes since 2002, often using it to penetrate Israeli airspace.

In the Binyamina attack, Hezbollah launched multiple drones under the cover of a rocket barrage, a tactic aimed at overwhelming Israeli defense systems. One drone managed to evade detection and crash in the Binyamina area, marking a significant breach in Israeli air defenses. According to a report by Defense Industry Daily, this is not the first time a Mirsad-1 drone has slipped past Israel’s defenses; a similar incident occurred earlier in the year when Hezbollah drones flew over Israeli territory for several minutes before returning to Lebanon unscathed.

Expanding drone arsenal​

Hezbollah’s use of drones is part of a broader Iranian strategy to enhance its proxy forces' capabilities. The Foundation for Defense of Democracies explains that Hezbollah has increasingly incorporated drones into its arsenal to complement its existing missile and rocket capabilities. Drones like the Mirsad-1 allow Hezbollah to conduct precise attacks deep into Israeli territory while minimizing risk to their personnel. This tactic, which has been refined over years of trial and error, is part of a broader effort by Iran to arm its proxies with advanced technologies.
