Islamic Resistance In Lebanon Targets Israeli Military Vehicle And Three Army Positions In Bayada And Bint Jbeil

On Friday, the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon announced that it targeted an Israeli enemy military vehicle and three Israeli enemy army positions in occupied southern Lebanon at various times, framing the actions as defense of Lebanon and its people in response to Israel’s violation of the ceasefire and its attacks on southern villages, which it said resulted in civilian casualties, as part of Operation Protective Edge.

In statement number 1, the Resistance said that at 10:45 AM its fighters targeted an Israeli army position in the town of Bayada with a surprise attack, achieving a confirmed hit.

In statement number 2, it added that at 9:30 AM its fighters targeted a gathering of Israeli enemy soldiers in the vicinity of the Musa Abbas complex in the city of Bint Jbeil with artillery shells.

In statement number 3, the Lebanese resistance reported that at 9:30 AM its fighters targeted a gathering of Israeli enemy soldiers in the vicinity of a school in the town of Houla with artillery shells.

In statement number 4, it stated that at 1:15 PM its fighters targeted a military vehicle in the town of Bayada with a swoop, achieving a confirmed hit.

The announcement concluded by saying the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon continues its military operations in response to the Israeli enemy’s continued violations of agreements and attacks on Lebanese sovereignty.

A separate report described a much broader sequence of claimed attacks, saying the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon issued 37 military statements on Saturday about operations to counter Israeli enemy movements along the Lebanese-Palestinian border and operations targeting the enemy’s sites, bases, deployments, and settlements in northern occupied Palestine.

The same account listed multiple time-stamped strikes, including a claim that at 13:45 yesterday, Friday, 10-04-2026, a Merkava tank near the Ishraq School in Bint Jbeil was targeted with a guided missile with a confirmed hit and was seen burning.

It also said that at 00:40 there was a volley of missiles targeting the settlements of Kiryat Shmona, Metula, and Misgav.

The report further claimed that at 01:15 there was a volley of rockets targeting infrastructure belonging to the Israeli army in the occupied city of Safed, and that at 01:40 fighters targeted a gathering of Israeli army soldiers in a house in the town of Sham’ with a diving attack resulting in direct hits.

The list continued with claims such as at 02:00 targeting a Merkava tank on Tel al-Awwayda hill in the border town of Adaisseh with a guided missile followed by a diving attack, with a confirmed hit that caused the tank to burn.

It also included later claims like at 08:45 targeting a gathering of soldiers and vehicles of the Israeli army at the Metulla site with a swarm of attack drones, and at 18:45 targeting the Nahariya settlement with a volley of missiles.

Another account tied the Resistance’s actions to a named campaign, saying the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon announced that it targeted, at various times on Friday, a naval base, an artillery emplacement, a barracks, three gatherings of the Israeli army, and four settlements in the occupied territories.

It said the operations were detailed in nine separate statements and affirmed that they came in defense of Lebanon and its people and within the framework of the battle of “The Devastating Blow,” and in response to the enemy’s violation of the ceasefire agreement despite the Resistance’s commitment to the agreement.

The same report stressed that “this response will continue until the Israeli-American aggression against our country and our people stops.”

It then provided specific time-stamped claims, including statement No. 17 saying fighters targeted at 10:50 a.m. a gathering of Israeli army soldiers east of the Khiyam detention center with a precision missile.

In statements 18 and 19, it said at 11:00 a.m. fighters hit the outpost settlement of Matla for the third time with a volley of missiles, and at 10:30 a.m. they targeted the settlements of Matla, Margaliot, and Misgav Am with a volley of missiles.

The report also said that statements 20 and 21 included at 12:00 p.m. targeting the Kiryat Shmona military base with a swarm of attacking drones, and at 1:30 p.m. targeting the Avivim settlement with a volley of missiles.

While Resistance statements emphasized attacks and defense, L’Orient-Le Jour’s live coverage focused on an Israeli strike in Beirut’s southern suburbs, reporting that “one woman and two children” were killed and that “74 injured” were recorded, citing the Lebanese Health Ministry.

The live page described the scene with “Rescue workers on a crane in front of the building targeted by an Israeli strike in Beirut's southern suburbs,” and it tracked updates including that “The toll of the Israeli strike on the southern suburb has risen to three dead, a woman and two children, as well as 74 injured, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.”

It also reported that “Searches continue in the rubble,” and that among the injured “65 have already left hospitals, 9 remain hospitalized, including 5 in critical condition.”

The same live coverage included a statement from the Israeli military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, saying “the aggression continues and Hezbollah's brutal attacks are dragging the Lebanese people and the entire Middle East into a broader escalation.”

It also quoted the United Nations Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, saying she was “deeply concerned by the Israeli raid in a densely populated district of southern Beirut,” and that “there is no military solution and calls on Israel and Lebanon to use all diplomatic avenues toward a return to cessation of hostilities.”

In the same stream, it reported that the United States had sent warships to the Mediterranean, and it included a response from Democratic candidate Kamala Harris saying Israel has the right to defend itself against a terrorist organization, which is the case with Hezbollah, while also calling for “work to do toward a diplomatic solution to end these attacks.”

The New Arab’s account, as carried in العربي الجديد, described Israeli ground attack activity in the town of Bint Jbeil ahead of a Washington meeting, while also detailing political and humanitarian developments.

It said Israeli forces today attacked the town of Bint Jbeil in southern Lebanon in a move aimed at seizing the town’s strategic position, and it added that an Israeli military spokesman and Lebanese security sources told Reuters that the Israeli army surrounded Bint Jbeil at the border and began a ground assault there.

Lebanese sources in the same report said Hezbollah fighters entrenched inside the town were prepared to fight to the death, and it quoted an Israeli official saying full operational control over Bint Jbeil would be achieved within days, with only a small number of Hezbollah fighters remaining in the area.

The report also described a diplomatic track, saying AFP on Monday urged Hezbollah to cancel the talks scheduled for Tuesday between Lebanon and Israel, with Secretary‑General Naim Qasem saying such talks are “futile.”

In a televised address, it quoted Qasem saying, ‘We reject negotiations with the occupying Israeli entity, these negotiations are futile,’ and it also included his warning that “our decision is resistance. We will not calm down. We will not stop and we will not surrender. And we will let the field speak.”

The same account said Lebanon’s disaster‑risk management unit reported that the total number of displaced people in shelters reached 140,914.
