Hizballah defenses keep Israeli military stuck on border, with Jon Elmer

we are going to move now further north to the Lebanon front and we're going to show you some maps to set up the Lebanon uh front here the first map will give you um a sense of where the main targeting is that's the border the red area is the area south of the Lani River that's 40 kilometers north of the of the Border we're going to call it the Border just for uh Simplicity it's not a border it's a blue line demarcation line but you can see the overwhelm ing uh focus of the attacks is is from the Lani River down to the to the southern demarcation line but also you can see all through uh Beirut and balak in the Baka Valley also being targeted Christian Villages being targeted massacres being carried out all the time Hezbollah yesterday 20 operations 18 of them in historic Palestine 145 kilometers deep 100 air strikes a day by the Israeli Air Force um and we're going to look at this in number 11 here is a battle damage map that's showing you where they're concentrating so five miles the the five miles distinction they're making is double the furthest point that Israel has crossed the border in this uh vaunted ground maneuver although they have said it's been delimited um they are not moving across the border in any significant way but what they are doing is destroying from the air and from artillery all of these Villages Villages like aab which is a 400y old 4,000 year old 400 year old village um and many of those Villages are newer um along the border some of them literally like karila that you'll see up at the top it's literally attached to the Border that's what they're destroying um and 50% of the buildings in the darkened area means 50% of the buildings in the entire town are erased and that has happened mostly in the last uh two weeks if we look at the next one you can see this is the classic uh sat like Israeli satellite eraser um satellite imaging of them just erasing people's Villages people's lives um these can be rebuilt they will be rebuilt hasbalah has a reconstruction and construction unit in its uh in its organization these places will all be rebuilt um but right now Israel's priority is destroying them 6,000 buildings alone in uh karella that is uh a place that we're going to focus on if we look at this next map that's just the before and after of the damage so this is by The Institute for the study of War and the um these were the guys that CNN said were forensic uh when they they reported on what we have been reporting on since October when they did it once um but this is this is a very exaggerated uh map showing how far the Israelis have crossed the border and the map there no no spot is more than 4 kilomet and that is not forward operating positions Israel is not having positions in those spots they're moving forward they get contact they withdraw they're not they're not setting their forces up in places like we see in jabalia where they're setting up their forces inside jabalia that is not happening in any of the villages six weeks uh into this war and none of that has happened in any of the villages in the western sector the 142nd division hasbalah said yesterday there hasn't been a crossborder move by the 146 division since the 28th of October um on the Eastern Edge 26 operations by Hezbollah taring marun Al Ras which is um on the right hand side of that map um you can see maruna Ras again on the edges of these and then the next map will show you um the Galilee panh handle um where the 91st vision is operating um and it's important to note Israeli newspaper Yeo aroth um the other day um reported that they have the Israelis have deployed over 50,000 troops five divisions to the border and the Israeli military has yet to capture even a single Village yo arut said Hezbollah has told us that too but here you get it from the Israelis um they have failed to secure a foothold anywhere in the area what that means is they're returning to the Border they're not staying in Lebanon they're returning to the Border um and they're getting hit really hard they're getting hit in batches of five they're losing soldiers in batches of five um one example Four soldiers peered into a tunnel shaft in South Lebanon and they expected to be empty they were wrong Hezbollah mil militants hiding inside detonate detonated explosive devices tossed hand grenades and the Israelis came under Fire nine killed 15 19 injured um we saw the one last week where Fighters took over a house right on the edge of town they took over the house to make it a forward position their first forward position of the six week War um and Hezbollah came up from the basement and fought them in the stairwell of the house uh five injured 16 16 injured five killed in that and they withdrew so that is the theme of what you're looking at uh on uh on this uh Advance this is the this is the ground maneuver if anyone is telling you if you're reading in the newspaper that Israel is invading Lebanon and that they're having a ground maneuver inside Lebanon it's not true it's not true you're looking at these Maps you're hearing it from their own newspapers from their own uh military statements that they do not have a single Village they're on the outskirts of the village and listen to what Army Radio reporter said when he got back from Lebanon what can be learned about the ground maneuver in southern Lebanon from the idx IDF spokesman announcements that are officially published every morning during the last few weeks which is what I base my work on along with hezbollah's until two weeks ago the IDF reported every morning four divisions operating in southern Lebanon 91st 146 9836 later several days the IDF reported every morning three divisions operating in South Lebanon last week from Monday to Friday the IDF reported one morning two divisions operating in southern Lebanon 91st and 146 on Saturday the IDF reported that one division The 91st is operating in South Lebanon yesterday and today they reported two divisions attempted to cross the border so we've been told there's five divisions On the Border that are invading Lebanon that are carrying out ground Maneuvers is just not true it's not happened yet it may happen but it still has not happened yet um the the most that they have moved is 3 to four kilometers on the outskirts of the town of hiam which has the most gra uh Field forested Land in front of it so you're being told lies if you are being told that uh Israel is moving forward they're simply not moving forward Hezbollah said where are you guys in their in their field report yesterday it's like where are you guys um anyways number 15 here is what what they are doing right this is what Israel always does they're killing they're attacking the hospitals they're killing the paramedics uh they're destroying the ambulances this is only up until October 23rd they're doing it every day every single day AAL the Shia movement releases their uh Health reporter stats and 2 three five seven paramedics kill the day in double tap strikes Israel strikes a civilian Target the paramedics run to help and Israel strikes the paramedics so even CNN I left this one in just to be like even CNN even CNN knows it they're not fighting Fighters they won't fight face to face they bomb from the air they fire artillery and they're great at attacking hospitals killing paramedics um and yeah it's just unbelievable but that's the setup for the resistance report from Lebanon so let's start at number 16 hasbalah has been playing on this there psychological operations in these last two weeks since you saw me last have been pretty solid so this is a psychological operation that says in 1982 you reached Beirut in seven days in 2006 you reach Wadi hajar in 33 days that was Wadi hajar was the graveyard of marava H what ended the war and as for today this is what's counting what you're seeing counting oh this is the 33rd day um but now watch what they do here they're saying here we go day one day two day three day four 0 kilometers from the border day 20 0 kilm from the border Day 26 0 km from the border day 40 or Day 26 escaping soldiers retreating soldiers that you're going to see here 13 14 15 and then they say day 40 you're still fighting on the outskirts of the Border Villages and then they leave it they say between us and you is the battlefield um so these psychological operations Hezbollah since you last saw me Hezbollah carried out 300 qualitative operations and that means an 80 uh an 80 rocket rocket barrage counts as one qualitative one operation of 300 if they send 20 drones it counts as one Operation 300 distinct operations 25 a day being carried out they're firing 200 Rockets a day they've killed a 100 Israeli soldiers they've destroyed 20 tanks H at least half that we've seen uh two apcs so this battle is ongoing um and it's I'm going to set up each of these next Parts with a psychological operation and then the operation itself so let's look at number 17 this is an operation in in kafar Kila this is where they've destroyed 80% of the village uh this Village is attached to the border and you don't see tanks right we never see tanks very rarely see tanks because they're not doing tank Maneuvers they're moving gingerly across the border with their troops moving into these positions so we're watching here soldiers uh running moving around into their base now look on the roof they're going to pop up a Israeli flag massive Israeli flag just so that the entire south of Lebanon knows what building the soldiers are in here guys uh they can't get it up they're are struggling with it but they want to put it up to take a Tik Tok video and then they want that uh video to go back to Israel to be like look we're in villages in South Lebanon when they're not they're not in these Villages Kfar kala is right on the border like literally attached to the Border um anyways you can see them move around here and once again this required an edit from me I edited out the explosion of the Cornet hitting these soldiers suffice it to say it hit them uh I edited it out and what you're going to see happen is the Israeli military firing a smoke screen to cover their wounded soldiers that I edited out um and that is what you're seeing so if you if YouTube thinks that that's the explosion it's not the the explosion is removed H and the explosion that you see is the Israeli military firing so we can see here there's the Cornet there's the Cornet anti-tank wire anti-tank guided missile flying into the circle um and then I removed I we don't show the hit but we're going to see the Israelis fire a smoke screen to cover it so don't confuse that and say that we we didn't edit this video YouTube because we we uh very diligently vet and edit these videos to uh strictly adhere to community guidelines um yeah so that's a cornet fired from four kilometers away so um if the Israelis were four kilometers into Lebanon then they would be at where that cornet is but they're not and they're getting hit um and that there was at least well actually this operation was interesting because there was no the IDF did not acknowledge any dead within six days of this operation so um they're covering it up number 18 um number 18's another scop here this is a new feature in Palestine uh looking up and seeing uh drones this is a drone scop we're hearing in Hebrew on this video uh Israelis looking up and saying like look look a drone another one says a drone a drone someone says oh my God they're pointing up in the air the Drone someone says how come the helicopter can't catch it how come it can't see it then there's a fighter jet you see come through there uh the other guy says here's a drone God knows where it's going keep looking up these are all in Hebrew they're four the Israelis it's a psychological operation it's a video produced of their people uh reacting to the drones there's the helicopters uh that can't find the video or can't find the Drone um so yeah that was uh and it's finishes keep looking up and number 19 just shows you that the these are these are daily fixtures in Israel these uh these drones flying over and people on the Drone being like there it is there it is like oh my God pointing and putting their cameras up and these are separate drones uh they're all over they're flying all over Palestine looking for Israeli military targets uh to hit hitting strategic objectives in this um yeah this this is a new feature of life in Israel um it started before the war but it really or it started before this escalation of the war it's been going on um for most most of the past year but not not to this level this is completely new um number 20 I'll show you a bunch of drone strikes that they're pointing out again Hezbollah is using these Maps um to show you not just uh that they have all this intelligence but showing you where they're hitting that these are targeting strategic objectives military bases um that are on the map their target acquisition department is picking the targets that are not civilian targets these could be raining down on Tel Aviv they're not um the Israelis can't find these um they can't find the drones all kinds of times when you watch if you watch the military um field reports the Israelis are saying there's a drone over uh the Galilee um we're looking for it like they literally say like we can't find it we're looking for it we have multiple Assets in the air trying to locate it and then they'll you know post 15 minutes later uh the the Drone impacted we're not sure where it impacted they're just chasing they're chasing their tails on these they they're not able to knock them out so then this is an operation where you use the drones to deflect the attention of the uh Israeli and then you fire these more qualitative uh Nasser 2 guided missiles so these are Precision guided uh missiles 302 millimeter um with a 150 kilo Warhead um and they're to all targeting bases they're targeting um Alam base Ein shammer uh which is an old Royal Air Force Base in the north um they're targeting rat David Airbase uh the maps show um the maps that hasb is showing you are showing you their intelligence their level of detail that they have in the intelligence it's always remarkable to uh to point that out um what they're doing and their last operation is going to be against the gleo um military base um and here here we're seeing Oh that's one can we go do we do to 20 finish okay uh this is 21 this is the um this is hasbalah knocking a Hermes uh 900 out of the sky we'll Loop it around one more time because I I was caught off guard um no I don't need 20 again it's no problem I'm just going to give you the Drone stats um yeah so this video begins with a patch um yeah let's see that patch um it says the air defense unit of the Islamic resistance and it says we have made a canopy in the sky like a metaphor for a defensive Shield um an anti- acccess area denial Shield um that they have created and here they are Downing the flagship drone of made by elbit um made by elbit for the IDF for the Israeli Air Force um and this is another one being shot down since October 1st um four Hermes 450 and two Hermes 900 have been shot down I just want to give you the numbers from the last one because the LA number 20 ended on an attack on glot which is where the mosad base Aman military intelligence base and unit 8200 the key signals intelligence base um so that is a very significant Target that they have been hitting uh before um and then so Israel wrote this uh recently according to Fresh IDF data 1,300 drones have been launched at Israel amid the war from all fronts from Lebanon Gaza Iraq Syria Yemen and Iran the IDF says 231 of the drones struck Israel and they say here this is the key Hezbollah forces currently are left with less than 30% of the drones it had before the war thought to be hundreds well we've seen hundreds be fired so that's ridiculous um they Israelis say they're they uh to con news their National broadcaster they say the army deploys soldiers at observation posts along the border now to watch for the drones with their eyes um which is what we saw them doing in the bunker of the evacuated Village of Matula when 60 minutes took us uh on a tour in there that I showed you so yeah they the the Israelis are telling their population that there there's down to 30% of hezbollah's drone capacity it's just not true first of all they don't know the number of drones but second of all Hezbollah can resupply during the war that's a crucial distinction in this battle that doesn't exist for Gaza Gaza is under siege um they can't resupply in the traditional sense they can resupply by reusing unexploded ordinance but they can't resupply in the traditional sense so that's double Mistake by the Israelis um and then after this one we've got uh another scop because we're going to see here the motorcycles these uh dirt bikes are synonymous with Hezbollah um and here they are ripping through another underground missile base this is the Imad five missile base I've shown you on the show The Imad four but they ride their motorcycles under it they have their truck launched um heavy caliber missiles are launched from these underground uh positions there's audio in this video um that it's uh that's shik Hassan that's say Hassan Nala um saying we are here we cannot be weakened we cannot be afraid We Will Never Surrender we are here we will never leave the battlefield we will never lay down our weapons um and you see the rockets launched at hia Bay here from underneath the ground you see the ground opening up and Israel says that they've destroyed 80% of hezbollah's rockets it's just absurd they have these underground missile bases that are not knocked out even if you knocked out 80% of the above ground that's a fraction of these underground launchers and look at the size of the missiles that they launch from these sites so this is a scop video uh that says you know we're here we we're we're here on the battlefield we won't leave the battlefield we will not lay down our weapons and like I said in these barges they're firing 80 and 90 rockets in a single barrage 200 Rockets a day by Hezbollah is a number that is consistent throughout the last uh many months they've been firing between 150 and 200 Rockets so yeah when yab Galant left he said that they had less than 20% of their rocket capability it's just completely untrue and these scop videos psychological operations aimed at Israelis um you know the Lebanese like to see them as well but these are aimed that's why it's Hebrew this is just classic Hezbollah to to put these videos right into the Israeli public um and showing you this missile these missiles um and showing you just like to note these missiles could be rained down on Tel Aviv they could be rained down uh on Israeli cities and they're not hezb is not doing that they're hitting military targets despite the fact that 3,000 uh Lebanese have been killed they're killing 200 children there's a million people displaced um the honor in their force is still to not Massacre civilians like Israel does and they watch in Gaza and they watch in their own neighborhoods in Beirut they watched it happen to their own leader uh and his family and family members all around the dahia um that they do hit that so 23 is um the that was a psychological operation and this is an actual operation this is the first uh this is a debut of the fata 110 missile um this is fired at Tel Aviv to a site just south of beneran airport to sine Camp um an Israeli a key Israeli military Camp the um key details of the fat one 10 we've known they had them for a long time but you can see it's a pretty uh formidable missile um it's a solid fuel Precision guided 500 kilogram Warhead 300 kilometer range um launched from the underground missile base so it has the explosive capability of a 2,000 pound Israeli bomb uh which is what Israel Reigns down on tent camps in gabala these days and and jabalia but Hezbollah has these and for these to enter the battle um PE we've been waiting for this not totally sure why they wait so long I think they um like Naim kasum the leader um said in a speech the other day that they're prepared for a long War of Attrition so they're playing it carefully still um and then there's uh these are settler cameras showing you the strikes on the the Shri shaan Camp Shan Camp didn't get that but yeah and then number 24 this is the last one for Hezbollah this is underground another underground launch of Fadi and NASA rockets at the uh Israeli Air Forces so you can see the launch From The Underground launcher again um targeting the Israeli Air Force Technical College uh College of Aviation so like the training school so these are strategic targets that are being hit on Monday 200 Rockets were fired six soldiers critically wounded in rocket fire on Matilda on Matula um and there's been 1,020 rocket barges uh since September n uh sept September 17th and 125 barrages this week so barges are 80 90 60 uh often they're 80 and more Rockets in each launch so significant that's the nassa one you're seeing being launched there Precision guided this is part of hezbollah's precision guided system uh project to get these weapons uh Precision guided um and just to tack on to the end of the Lebanon front here um I want to show you the um yeni armed forces are still at it and they got they got another drone they got another us Air Force Reaper drone drone number 12 uh since the battle in the Red Sea began drone number 15 since 2017 so they've down they've downed 15 30 plus million doll mq9 Reaper drones from the US Air Force that are flying over and attacking Yemen um and they did this one um this one was from just the other day so up to date 12 have been lost and you can see it falling from the sky and Muhammad Alti he's spokesperson for an Allah he sent out a message that was just I'm going to close on this message he said since October 7th 2023 until now not a single case of killing an Israeli child has been recorded on the resistance axis while America has killed more than 20,000 Palestinian Lebanese children so far who's the terrorist just a simple statement that uh I think we can rhyme up uh wrap up with when you compare the horror in Gaza and the way that Israel and the United States fight their Wars and compare them to the way that Hezbollah has fought defending their Villages um without attacking civilians without massacring civilians which all of those rockets and missiles could do if that was their intention it's not their intention they're fighting an honorable fight to protect those Villages and so far they've been successful Israel has not in uh invaded uh with a major ground maneuver into Lebanon it has not happened it may happen but it has not yet happened and hola Fighters even said it today where are you guys in their communic so that is the resistance report those videos are there was many more from Hezbollah I tried to synchronize them into um some into some themes but they are releasing videos constantly I showed you every single video from the Palestinian resistance so you are completely up to date you didn't miss miss anything from us being away for a week [Music]
