Israeli rescue forces are currently retrieving the casualties from the Hezbollah IED detonation.

Communications between Olenya Airbase and strategic command and control in Moscow on 5227 kHz is recorded.

Likely related to a Tu-95MS redeploying from Engels-2 Airbase to Olenya Airbase, but I will keep an eye on it.

Multiple U.S. drone strikes were reported on Sheikh Barkat Hill near Aleppo, northwestern Syria.

Hezbollah rockets targeted the Israeli evacuation force attempting to retrieve casualties from the IED detonation.

Large Ukrainian drone attack on Crimea right now.

Explosions were heard in Saky, Oktyabrskoye, and Simferopol. Russian S-300 air defence is operational.

New high-resolution satellite imagery of the Moscow Oil Refinery reveals the scale of damage caused by several Ukrainian drone strikes two days ago.

At least two oil tanks were destroyed, another suffered significant damage, and two others suffered minor damage. Additionally, the bitumen production unit and some technical trestles were damaged.

The cloud cover makes it difficult to determine the full scale of the damage, but as usual, it's never as impressive as it seems in the videos of the large fires burning. Because they deal with such flammable materials, refineries are designed to be robust against fires.

Israeli artillery shelling is targeting the Ali al-Taher Hill ahead of another expected attempt at capturing it.

Scenes from the heavy Israeli artillery shelling targeting the Ali al-Taher Hill, southern Lebanon.

The sun will rise in around 6 hours. If they are unable to achieve any success, it's likely that the IDF will cease attempts to capture the hill by then.

Another Israeli ground push is being made now. Heavy machine-gun fire is reported. Hezbollah is launching rockets at the Israeli ground forces.

The U.S. drone strikes near Aleppo reportedly targeted an STG-affiliated ISIS cell.

The assassination strikes were successful.

The IDF is bombing the Ali al-Taher Hill with white phosphorus right now, ahead of the ground advance.

Second attempt at storming the hill was called off. Reason unknown.

MES vs War Monitor conflict is the funniest thing ever.

Almost as funny as AMK vs David D

More burning IDF tanks after their 6th failed attempt to capture the strategic Ali al-Taher Hill in the last week.

I genuinely don't know what the IDF thinks they're doing...

They control NONE of the hills surrounding this facility. This hill has no buildings for cover, just a bunch of booby trapped bunkers and tunnels.

Attacking it head on is literal suicide, and the constant airstrikes and artillery shelling has not seemed to have stopped Hezbollah attacks from Nabatieh, or rocket launchers from rear Hezbollah positions.

More Hezbollah rocket launches towards IDF positions near Ali al-Taher a short time ago.

Israeli airstrikes on the city of Nabatieh, southern Lebanon, following their failed attempts at capturing Ali al-Taher Hill.

Israeli drones are operating over Beirut right now.

This second IDF column attempted to attack the Ali al-Taher Hill on a new route, bypassing it via Manzleh and approaching it from the west.

The column was ambushed by ATGMs at the green square, prior to reaching the hill.

Israeli helicopters are now operating over the city of Nabatieh.
