The "Falaq" missile family:

• "Falaq 1" and "Falaq 2" are conventional destructive missiles that entered the battle progressively.
• Every "Falaq" missile is equivalent to an airstrike. We targeted the Meron Air Base with 20 "Falaq 2" missiles, which is equivalent to a fire belt.
• The "Falaq" missile is of great importance as it has a high destructive capacity and a range up to 11 km.
• The Islamic Resistance was able to adapt the missile launchers to match our field needs as we wanted to prevent the use of several launchers so as to not disperse our forces. We need to fire these missiles in an extensive manner, and at once.
• We work on emptying the launchers completely according to specific tactics and measures.
• We used "Falaq" missiles to target the enemy's settlements in response to the enemy targeting civilian areas.
• We have many surprises in the "Falaq" family. We moved from "Falaq 1" which weighs about 114 kg to "Falaq 2" which weighs up to 250 kg according to the battlefield needs, and we will certainly progress further.

The Burkan missile family (one of the most destructive weapons in Hezbollah's arsenal):

• The Burkan missile was designed by the engineers of the Islamic Resistance and was subject to several tests. The ones revealed so far include 3 types, light, medium, and heavy missiles.
• We used this missile to target several enemy command centers.
• The Burkan missile makes a distinctive, high explosive sound. This is intentional. It is meant to inflict psychological consequences on the enemy just as their air force superiority inflicts these effects on our people.
• We have been preparing for this battle for the past 17 years, in the nature of our weapons and our ground preparedness. What we have unveiled from the Burkan family is only part of what we possess. We have Burkans that exceed the ones used so far in weight and range.
• Throughout this battle, we have been fighting within certain, specified limitations that the leadership of the Resistance has set. However, in case of war with no boundaries, the scene would be different.
• The types of missiles we have not yet unveiled have the capacity to completely destroy the "israeli" enemy's outposts.

The Katyusha missile family:

• We started off using wooden platforms to fire 1 or 2 Katyusha rockets in the past, and we were able to hit our targets.
• The Islamic Resistance was then able to develop the Katyusha missile launchers to fire 7-40 missiles from a fixed or mobile launcher, and to ones of global standards.
• The Resistance developed Katyusha launchers that carry up to 100 missiles, and this is unprecedented, even in the Russian Army.
• We created platforms that are fixed in the ground, made from cement, and which are pointed at the target as needed.
• The Islamic Resistance then further developed its Katyusha launchers from fixed platforms to mobile ones that conduct their attacks then retreat.
• In the past, Katyusha rockets were only used to target the bordering settlements. Now, they cover almost the entire Upper Galilee.
• We used Katyusha rockets on targets in the depth of the occupied lands. Our Katyusha missiles now reach targets in the depths of the occupied Golan.
• We used Katyusha missiles in joint operations such as the attack on the Meron Base where we used them alongside ATGMs and drones.
• Katyushas are also used to bomb the settlements in retaliation to any attack on our towns and cities in the South.
• One of the main roles of this weapon is to deplete the Iron Dome. The Iron Dome is meant to protect military targets, and yet, it has failed to even defend civilians.
• The Islamic Resistance adopts a policy of "drowning" that intends to expose the new positions of Iron Dome platforms and deplete them with Katyusha rockets and drones. We fire the first barrage to deplete the Iron Dome battery, so the second barrage enters without interception.
• The Resistance is constantly developing and improving its capabilities and tactics according to the needs of the battlefield and the experience we gain fighting this enemy.

Hezbollah possesses the Iranian top-attack Almas-1/2/3/4 ATGM, with man in the loop mode and 8-10km range



Hezbollah also possesses huge numbers of Kornet/Dehlavieh ATGMs with 4-6km range. It's possible that this is produced locally inside Lebanon.



Hezbollah also possesses a range of other ATGMs such as the SACLOS Konkurs ATGM

Precision guided short range ballistic missiles

Iranian Fateh-110



Precision guided upgraded Iranian Zelzal rockets

Early versions of Zelzal had good range and destructive power (600kg warhead and 250km range) but lacked accuracy. Iran is helping Hezbollah upgrade its large stockpile of Zelzal rockets with precision guided warheads, effectively converting them into precision guided SRBMs.

IDF announces Major (Res.) Itay Galea killed in northern Israel

Hezbollah claims to have fired over 200 rockets and 20 drones on Israel's North, both in the Galilee and in the Golan.

www.jpost.com

200 rockets and 20 drones to kill 1 person is a bad ratio of success.

So if Hezbollah launch all they have against Israel, they would achieve less casualties than Hamas in Oct 7 attacks.

An acceptable price for Israel corrupt regime, Israel Hezbollah war is unavoidable in the coming months. USA wants mayhem in Middle East, and Israel is the perfect useful idiot.
