Security analyst Yair Goldblatt reports strikes in the Shiite villages of Ramin and Qantara, and at the Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon, according to a post on X. No details on the type of attacks, targets, or casualties are yet available.
Security analyst Yair Goldblatt reported Tuesday evening strikes in three locations across southern Lebanon: the Shiite villages of Ramin and Qantara, and the Ali al-Taher ridge. The post on X provided no details on the type of munitions, the specific targets hit, or casualties. This follows a sustained series of overnight and daytime strikes in the same region earlier this week.
According to The Zioneer's coverage from Thursday, August 20, Israeli forces carried out multiple strikes on the Ali al-Taher ridge, Mount Tel Dabsheh, and the villages of Kafr Rumman, Nabatieh al-Fawqa, and others. Lebanese sources reported the use of bunker-busting missiles in some strikes, and Hezbollah operatives were reported besieged as IDF ground maneuvering continued. The thread documented at least ten distinct reports of strikes in the Ali al-Taher area and surrounding villages over the course of that day, with some accounts indicating strikes continued overnight and into the next morning. The new report adds the villages of Ramin and Qantara to the list of targets, expanding the operational scope in the Nabatieh district.
As The Zioneer has reported throughout the summer, southern Lebanon remains the primary theater of Israeli operations aimed at dismantling Hezbollah's military infrastructure. On June 19, the IDF struck over 80 targets across southern Lebanon and the Beqaa Valley in a single night, as part of a broader campaign to degrade the group's ability to strike Israeli communities. The Ali al-Taher ridge has been a recurring focal point of these operations, given its strategic position overlooking the border region.
No official IDF statement has been issued regarding Tuesday evening's strikes, and details on casualties or the specific nature of the targets remain unverified. The Zioneer continues to monitor reports from the region.
