Hezbollah Attacks Strategic Meron Base Once More

According to a statement from Hezbollah, this attack was carried out in response to recent Israeli regime assassinations in Lebanon and Syria, as well as repeated attacks by the regime’s army on civilians and homes in southern Lebanese villages.

This is the second attack by Hezbollah on the air command base in Mount Meron. The Lebanese resistance fighters targeted the Meron Air Surveillance Base with the launch of 40 Katyusha rockets and 22 guided anti-tank missiles (Dehlaviyeh-3 missile or 9M133 Kornet-M Russian anti-tank guided missile), in the first attack on January 6.

The Meron Air Surveillance Base is located at the top of Mount Meron in northern Israeli-occupied territories, the highest peak in occupied Palestine. This military base is considered the sole center for the management, protection, and air control in northern occupied Palestine and, alongside the Ramon-Mitzpe base in the southern occupied territories, is one of Israel’s two main air command bases.

The Meron base is involved in organizing, coordinating, and managing all Israeli air operations in Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, Cyprus, and the northern sector of the Mediterranean Sea. The base is also the main center for electronic disruption operations in the airspace of these areas, with a large number of skilled Israeli officers and soldiers actively operating there.
