Hezbollah Launches Rocket Barrages at Israeli Advancements, Kiryat Shmona, and Haifa

The official military media wing of Hezbollah, الإعلام الحربي في المقاومة الإسلامية, released a series of statements on March 9, 2026, detailing multiple rocket attacks against Israeli military positions and settlements. The channel, which serves as the direct mouthpiece for the Islamic Resistance, stated the strikes were in response to the criminal Israeli aggression that targeted dozens of Lebanese cities, towns, and the southern suburbs of Beirut.

Morning Border Clashes According to the Resistance statements, Hezbollah fighters targeted advancing Israeli enemy forces and troop gatherings at three separate border locations early Monday morning: At 06:12, fighters fired a rocket barrage at an Israeli force advancing from the Aqaba heights in the border town of Markaba, according to Statement 11. At 06:30, a rocket barrage targeted a gathering of Israeli enemy army vehicles and soldiers in Khallet al-Mahafer on the outskirts of Odaisseh. This strike was widely amplified by pro-Resistance and Palestinian networks, including قناة الميادين | عاجل, شبكة قدس الإخبارية, and Jenin News | أخبار جنين, which reproduced the exact language of the official announcement.

• Concurrently at 06:30, fighters targeted an Israeli force advancing from the al-Bursaima neighborhood in the border town of Rabb al-Thalathin with a rocket barrage, as reported by the War Media channel.

Strikes on Kiryat Shmona and Haifa Later in the day, the attacks expanded deeper into Israeli territory. At 11:30, Hezbollah fired a rocket barrage at Kiryat Shmona. نايا - NAYA, a channel exhibiting strong anti-Israel editorial sentiment, highlighted that this strike was executed within the framework of a prior warning issued by the Islamic Resistance to the northern settlement.

At 12:15, the Resistance fired a qualitative rocket barrage at the Zev air defense base in occupied Haifa, the official channel announced in Statement 10.

Regional media aligned with the Resistance axis, including Al Mayadeen - قناة الميادين and [[[جنوب لبنان]]راصد العدو](https://t.me/rasedal3ado138e), faithfully reproduced these statements. The reporting across all channels maintains an identical framing of these events, strictly utilizing Hezbollah's religiously charged terminology and adversarial language without providing counter-narratives or Israeli military responses.
