TL;DR

Ambassador Yehiel Leiter named 13 villages — from al-Zahrani to Haret al-Naaba — as locations from which Hezbollah fired 147 rockets, 20 drones, and 9 anti-tank missiles over the past 24 hours, according to his social media post Saturday evening. Leiter described Hezbollah as a terrorist organization and an Iranian proxy uninterested in a ceasefire.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Ambassador to the U.S. Yehiel Leiter on Saturday evening published a social media post detailing 13 villages in southern Lebanon that he said served as launching points for Hezbollah attacks against Israeli forces. The villages named were Kfar Sir, al-Zahrani, Khirbet al-Duweir, Tafahata, Mazraat al-Daoudiya, Tull, Harouf, Jwaya, Kfar Reman, Kfar Fila, Jbaa, Mazraat al-Qamata, and Haret al-Naaba.

Leiter attached a 24-hour tally: 147 rockets, 20 explosive drones, and 9 anti-tank missiles. This echo-s his earlier figures reported by The Zioneer at 18:44 Jerusalem time, and aligns with IDF assessments that the ceasefire framework in southern Lebanon is being violated by sustained Hezbollah fire. The ambassador concluded: 'Hezbollah is a terrorist organization. Hezbollah lies. Hezbollah is Iran's long arm and is not interested in a ceasefire.'

No official Israeli response beyond Leiter's post has been issued. The IDF has not independently confirmed the village-by-village details, though the overall launch count matches military assessments released earlier in the day.
