Hezbollah Fighters Ambush Israeli Military Force Attempting to Advance from Rashaf to Hadatha, South Lebanon

The Islamic Resistance fighters reinforced their confrontation with the Zionist occupation troops in South Lebanon, ambushing a military force while it was attempting to advance from the town of Rashaf to that of Hadatha in Bint Jbeil Distirct. In this regard, Hezbollah Military Media issued on Wednesday two statements (numbered 10 and 11) to detail the ambush. Statement 10 In defense of Lebanon and its people, and in response to the “Israeli” enemy’s violation of the ceasefire and its attacks on villages in southern Lebanon which resulted in the martyrdom of civilians and injuries among others, the Islamic Resistance fighters ambushed at 14:00 on Wednesday 13-05-2026 a force belonging to the “Israeli” enemy army that attempted to advance from Rashaf town toward the vicinity of Haddatha town. Upon reaching the ambush point, the Islamic Resistance fighters detonated an explosive device against the advancing force and engaged its members with light and medium weapons and rocket-propelled grenades. Statement 11 In defense of Lebanon and its people, and in reference to Statement No. (10), after monitoring an armored force belonging to the “Israeli” enemy army consisting of two Namera vehicles and a D9 bulldozer advancing from the Cultural Complex area in Rashaf town toward Haddatha town, the fighters ambushed it at the stone factory point on the road connecting the two towns. They detonated an explosive device against one of the Namera vehicles and continued the engagement with the remaining enemy force using machine guns. During the engagement, enemy warplanes and drones intervened to secure the evacuation of the destroyed vehicle and to provide cover for the advance of a remotely operated booby-trapped vehicle toward the center of Haddatha town. When it reached the Baydar area at 14:10, the fighters engaged it with direct rocket fire, causing it to veer off its course and become disabled, forcing the enemy to detonate it on the roadside before it reached the town square.
