• Al-Azziyah–Mansouri Road: Hostile drones dropped sonic and intimidation bombs along the main road.
• Intensive Aerial Surveillance: Israeli reconnaissance and drone aircraft maintained heavy and continuous flights over the Tyre district and villages across the central and eastern sectors.
2️⃣ Artillery & Machine-Gun Fire

• Central & Eastern Sectors: Houla, Wadi al-Salouqi, Bani Hayyan, Wadi al-Hujeir, and Beit Lif.
• Western Sector: Mansouri and Zawtar al-Sharqiyah.
• Direct Machine-Gun Fire: Heavy machine-gun fire was directed toward Hadatha and Houla, apparently aimed at restricting and disrupting movement.
3️⃣ Ground Incursions, Bulldozing & Booby-Trapping
• Mansouri Incursion: An Israeli force, reinforced by a Merkava tank and a D9 armored bulldozer, advanced into Mansouri. Barrels and jerry cans reportedly rigged with explosives were transported for use in demolition operations.
• Halata Farm — Hasbaya District: Israeli military vehicles entered the area and surrounded several homes, preventing residents from leaving.
• Demolitions & Explosions: Israeli forces carried out explosions and demolished residential homes and buildings in Taybeh, Qantara, Hadatha, Wadi Braishit, and the vicinity of Deir Seryan.
4️⃣ Casualties & Civilian Detentions
• Killed & Wounded: One person was killed and another wounded after an Israeli drone strike in the Nabatieh al-Fawqa area.
• Siege & Detention of Civilians: Several families and civilians were reportedly trapped inside their homes during the incursion into Halata Farm, preventing them from moving freely.
No verified reports of abductions and transfers into Israeli-controlled territory had been recorded at the time of publication. Residents of several homes in Halata remain under field siege.
Military Assessment
The Israeli forces appear to be deliberately pursuing a scorched-earth strategy, expanding engineering and demolition operations against frontline villages in an attempt to impose a new reality on the ground.
This is occurring alongside attempts at infiltration and maneuvering under the cover of artillery fire and drone activity.
Resistance forces are monitoring Israeli movements and remain on high alert to respond to any further escalation.
