They lost 80 commanders and 50,000 remained. This is how Hezbollah men fight: hidden in tunnels and divided into brigades.

After the leaders were beheaded, the shadow operation was launched. The militia has about 50,000 members, half of whom are “reservists.”

Shadow operation: one Dispersing Hezbollah units into small nucleitrying not to give reference points to the Israeli army and to use knowledge of the region to its advantage. After the beheading of the political-military summitAs researcher Nancy Ezzedine pointed out, the platoon granted a greater degree of autonomy to individual “brigades” that now operate semi-independently, following pre-thought-out provisions and applying procedures developed with Iranian assistance.

The militants have abandoned highly exposed command centers, relying on greater mobility. At the same time, they tried to increase the protection of the communications network It was considered vulnerable, just as it would have strengthened the cyber shield. On the one hand, the structure favored defense, and on the other hand it made complex actions more difficult. But at this point, Hezbollah does not have much choice: it must hold out, inflict losses, and engage as much as possible with the IDF, which has just sent in a fourth division.




















































According to estimates The militia has about 50,000 members, half of whom are “reservists.”,The staff has improved since 2006 specifically to deal with a large-scale attack. The killing of some eighty commanders, including about thirty of the Ridwan (the chosen component), certainly had its effect, but it was compensated for by agile tactics.. The fighters set up ambushes, set up booby traps in buildings, and used anti-tank systems and mortars.. They visualized the trends while also taking into account the raids of recent months. One of the villages in which a number of soldiers were killed was subjected to repeated bombing by the air force. It wasn't enough because you can't just remove bunkers and bunkers from the top.

Experts repeat: If Hamas built the Gaza “metro,” Hezbollah always built a larger metro. The tunnels are designed in different “models”: Tunnels housing warehouses and dispensaries; others, near the border, to form one or more defensive “lines.”; Finally, the steps for potential infiltration. The goal is to make any progress costly. The Israelis are aware of what awaits them, and in recent days they have moved not far from the border to stop these operations. Underground outposts. These sites often conceal further dangers, particularly mines and “improvised” devices.

Hezbollah has decades of experience. It first used bombs hidden in fake rocks commonly used to decorate parks, and it has perfected penetrating devices. Another strong point is the arsenal consisting of missiles, missiles and drones. Hezbollah continues to fire these missiles, especially unguided “vectors,” which limits the use of more sophisticated means in certain raids. The operating range of this equipment ranges from 4 kilometers to a few hundred, and there are ballistic and anti-ship missiles: they can be fired at from vehicles, from camouflaged platforms that can be activated remotely, and from tunnels. It takes little to create insecurity among Israeli civilians.
