[57179] Hezbollah publishes footage of attacks in southern Lebanon against a Humvee and a Merkava tank


Media channels affiliated with Hezbollah published footage of attacks they claim were carried out on May 8 against IDF armored vehicles in Blida.

Over the past day, media channels affiliated with the Hezbollah organization distributed footage of military operations, which they claim took place on May 8, 2026. The videos, which were widely distributed under the title "Military Media" (الإعلام الحربي), show what is described as a strike on a Merkava tank and an IDF "Humvee" vehicle in the town of Al-Baidha in southern Lebanon, using suicide unmanned aerial vehicles.

The Military Media of the Islamic Resistance and الإعلام الحربي - التغطية الإخبارية uploaded video footage of the attacks. According to reports, as reported by the Shehab agency, this involved the use of a "suicide drone" (محلّقة انقضاضيّة) against the armored vehicles of the "Israeli enemy army," as the IDF is referred to in the reports of these channels.

Additional networks, including Al-Mayadeen channel and لبنان نيوز, broadcast the footage using terminology characteristic of the "Islamic Resistance" narrative. In the description of the operation published on the "Rased Al-Adu" channel, it is emphasized that this is direct footage of a hit on a Merkava tank, and the videos were distributed under the hashtag "Military Media."

The reporting sources emphasize the success of the attacks in Blida, using language that glorifies the organization's capabilities against IDF forces. As of now, the reports are focused on distributing the visual documentation without any mention of casualties or an official Israeli response.
