Hezbollah's 'phase one' failure: Israel foils attacks on Mossad, IDF intel bases

The Jerusalem Post understands that Hezbollah was attempting to target the headquarters of the Mossad, as well as the IDF. Hezbollah has listed 11 bases it said it targeted, but it and the IDF have also implied that it was also hoping to target Mossad headquarters and IDF headquarters.

The Jerusalem Post understands that measures were even taken in advance to reduce the likelihood of casualties had such attacks taken place.

Those attacks would have been part of an attack of somewhere between several hundred and potentially even thousands of rockets all over northern Israel, with also a smaller number targeting the Tel Aviv and central Israel regions.

In a later announcement, IDF spokesperson said, "We thwarted most of the attack Hezbollah had planned and intercepted the majority of threats launched towards Israel." They further emphasized that no IDF military bases or other strategic targets in central Israel were hit.

The Hezbollah actions while severe, are just for show. Hezbollah on Iranian orders, is putting on a harmless show called retaliation

I know Israeli fighter aircraft sonic boomed Beirut. I wonder if they are doing it every day?

Not every day, but frequently since October 7. One especially notable occurrence was August 6 as Nasrallah was about to speak.

Reminder that there are no real air defenses over Lebanon.
