Watan-Israeli circles expressed concern over the Lebanese Hezbollah’s release of footage showing the striking of a Merkava 4 tank at the Lebanese-Palestinian border with a specialized guided missile.
Hezbollah broadcast scenes of “targeting the Islamic Resistance’s Merkava tank at the Baghdad site belonging to the Israeli enemy’s army at the Lebanese-Palestinian border with a specialized guided missile.”
Notable in the footage aired by Hezbollah was the documentation of the tank’s targeting through a camera mounted on the missile that struck it.
Targeting of Merkava 4 tank
Commenting on the attack, Israeli broadcasting authorities considered Hezbollah’s dissemination of footage targeting the Merkava 4 tank with a guided missile to be a matter of concern.
They stated that the Iranian missile “Almaz” which struck the tank perfectly matches the Israeli “Spike” missile.
They pointed out that the Israeli missile may have reached Iran through Hezbollah since the Second Lebanon War.
Earlier today, Saturday, February 10, 2024, Hezbollah announced the targeting of an enemy soldiers’ gathering in the highlands of Aita al-Shaab with missile weapons, causing direct casualties.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah claimed responsibility for targeting the Israeli Baranite Barracks with missile weapons.
Hezbollah also announced its control over a Sky Lark enemy reconnaissance drone, which is in good technical condition.
