Hezbollah's roadside bombs pose growing danger to Israeli occupation forces: Report
An Israeli paper has reported that the danger posed by roadside bombs in southern Lebanon has resurfaced, becoming a recurring nightmare for Israeli occupation forces.
Reporting on Sunday, Ma'ariv said Lebanon's Hezbollah resistance movement has enhanced its engagement in guerrilla warfare and partisan-style operations, and therefore, significantly increasing the challenges facing the Israeli army.
According to the paper, Hezbollah's fighters are helped in the area by Lebanon’s terrain and dense vegetation that provide a major relative advantage to the movement. The explosive devices planted by the group are also extremely difficult to detect and neutralize, it noted.
Also on Sunday, Hezbollah said that four Israeli tanks had been destroyed as a result of explosions caused by mines previously planted by the Lebanese resistance.
It identified the target as an eight-vehicle armored convoy that was moving from the town of al-Taybeh towards the town of Deir Seryan in southern Lebanon, when it went over multiple roadside explosives on its way.
According to Hezbollah, the resulting blasts destroyed and set ablaze four Israeli Merkava tanks.
Ma'ariv likened the situation currently facing the Israeli troops as a result of the rampant deployment of the devices to the debacles Israeli forces experienced in Lebanon during the 1980s and 1990s.
Hezbollah was established in 1982, turning into the most prominent force standing up to Israeli occupation and aggression in Lebanon. The following years saw the movement deploy exceptional guerrilla warfare tactics against invading forces.
The movement's current state of readiness allows it to stage daring retaliatory strikes against sensitive and strategic Israeli targets, especially those lying in the northern part of the occupied territories.
Earlier this month, the Israeli regime was forced to halt its attacks on Lebanon following back-to-back rocket and missile barrages as well as drone strikes unleashed by Hezbollah that had declared its weariness of Tel Aviv's violations of a previous ceasefire deal.
