Hezbollah targeted an Israeli convoy in occupied Shebaa Farms on Wednesday, killing and injuring a large number of Israeli soldiers.

The Islamic resistance in Lebanon targeted an Israeli convoy of nine vehicles in occupied Shebaa Farms on Wednesday, killing and injuring a large number of Israeli soldiers.

Media outlets initially reported the operation, saying an anti-tank missile hit a vehicle in the Shebaa Farms.

Israeli Channel 10 pointed out that the Israeli targeted convoy included a number of Israeli military commanders who were inspecting the area.

In details, the resistance could penetrate all the Israeli security measures and ambush a military convoy, launching rocketry shells toward the vehicles.

Hezbollah prepared militarily and logistically for the operation and withdrew its troops safely after carrying out the mission successfully.

Hezbollah claimed the attack, saying that an Israeli convoy was hit, leaving number of casualties.

The attack comes more than a week after an Israeli raid in Quneitra in Syria’s Golan killed six Hezbollah fighters.

"At 11:25 this morning, the Quneitra Heroic Martyrs group, of the Islamic Resistance, targeted an Israeli military convoy in the Shebaa Farms composed of several vehicles transporting Zionist officers and soldiers," a statement released by Hezbollah Media Relations said.

“Several vehicles were destroyed, and casualties were caused among the enemy ranks,” the statement added.

Shortly after the attack, the occupation army announced that one of its vehicles was destroyed and that several soldiers were injured many of whom were in critical condition.

Conflicting reports emerged concerning the number of Israeli casualties. Sky News reported that 4 occupation sodliers were killed, while the Israeli Military Censor put the death toll at 2 soldiers.

According to Israeli media outlets, a battalion commander in Givati Brigade major Yuhay Klinger as well as a soldier, Dowr Nini, were killed.
