Lebanese sources affiliated with the Shiite axis report an Israeli armored column is attempting to advance toward the Ali al-Taher ridge, and that Hezbollah fired an anti-tank missile at the convoy. The claim is single-sourced and unverified by independent or official Israeli channels, according to Abu Ali Express.
A Lebanese channel affiliated with the Shiite axis, relayed by Abu Ali Express, reports that an Israeli armored column is attempting to advance toward the peak of the Ali al-Taher ridge at this hour (18:58 Jerusalem). According to the same sources, Hezbollah fired an anti-tank missile at the column in response. The report is single-sourced and has not been confirmed by the IDF or any independent Israeli media.
The Ali al-Taher ridge, in the Nabatieh district of southern Lebanon, has been a focal point of Israeli ground operations in recent days. As The Zioneer reported on Sunday, IDF forces pushed into new axes in southern Lebanon, including toward the ridge itself. Another bulletin on Saturday described heavy IDF artillery pounding the ridge. The current claim — if verified — would mark the first reported armored advance on the ridge's peak rather than artillery or preparatory fire.
No confirmation has come from the IDF Spokesperson's Unit, and the claim remains unverified. Hezbollah does not typically report its own anti-tank missile strikes in real time via these channels. A separate claim in the same batch — a senior US official stating forces would be drawn down after a final deal with Iran — is unrelated to this event.
