Hezbollah on April 5 claimed it had targeted a warship of the Israeli Navy with a cruise missile off the Lebanese coast, the first such claim by the group since the start of confrontation in Lebanon as a direct result of the American-Israeli war on Iran.
In a statement, the group said it targeted the warship as it was sailing 68 nautical miles off the coast of Lebanon, claiming that it was “preparing to launch attacks on Lebanese territory” and that “a direct hit was confirmed.”
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) told AFP when contacted later that it was “not aware” of any such attack by Hezbollah. The military has maintained a very high level of censorship since the start of the ongoing confrontation.
It was widely believed that Hezbollah’s anti-ship capabilities were wiped out by the IDF during the previous confrontation in Lebanon, which broke out after the start of the war in the Gaza Strip. The latest attack shows, however, that the group is still in possession of anti-ship cruise missiles.
Hebrew media reports warned when the ongoing confrontation first broke out that Hezbollah was still capable of targeting Israeli Navy warships.
The missile used by Hezbollah in the latest attack was most likely an Iranian-made Noor, which is a reverse engineered Chinese C-802.
The Islamic Republic produces several versions of the Noor, with an average range of 120 kilometers, or around 125 nautical miles. The missile is equipped with an Inertial navigation system, and utilizes an active radar housing seeker in its terminal phase.
Israeli Navy warships have been especially active during the ongoing confrontation with Hezbollah in Lebanon, carrying out pinpoint strikes against command centers and ammunition depots along the coast of the country, in addition to assassinations.
It’s worth noting that during the war of 2006 in Lebanon, Hezbollah managed to hit INS Hanit, a Sa’ar 5-class corvette of the Israeli Navy using anti-ships cruise missiles. Four crew members were killed during the attack, which remains one of the group’s biggest achievements in the decades-long conflict with Israel.

the treacherous alawites have thrown away everything they fought for together with iran and russia. then they thought they would have normal lives.
ave you ever noticed how death doesn’t always come all at once? sometimes it begins slowly, quietly, in a way we barely perceive.
this is exactly what is happening to alawites in syria today. when a person is targeted because of their identity, they are not killed immediately; they are
maybe only the russians and alawites will pay a fair price for their treacherous, corrupt nature.
https://hawarnews.com/ar/139742 they betrayed iran and hezbollah, and that’s why i want them both to pay a fair price.
first taken, pulled out of their life, placed somewhere outside of time.

arbitrary arrest here is not a security measure—it is the beginning of a slow death. a young alawite man is taken from his home: no clear charge, no trial, nothing tangible—only disappearance.
inside the prisons, there is no single act that can be named. there is an entire process: torture, rape, beatings, starvation, humiliation. all of this happens continuously, stretching across time, surrounding the person from every direction, until there is no longer any distinction between one moment and another, nor between beginning and end. the body is gradually drained, losing its ability to endure, turning into something controlled from the outside—
unable to stop what is happening, or even to understand when it began or where it ends.
a person reaches a stage where they are no longer able to go on, where their very existence hangs by a few fleeting moments. at that point, they are released—returned to the world in that state, carried by what remains of them—only for their life to end shortly afterward, outside the place where everything happened.
this is what happened to fater ratib hamdan, a young alawite man from the village of hadatha in the homs countryside.
he had been married for only three months. he was arbitrarily arrested over a year ago during raid campaigns carried out by the de facto jihadist-fascist authorities in syria.
he disappeared completely from his family, then was transferred between detention sites until he ended up in hama prison,
where he was subjected to severe, systematic torture, along with complete deprivation of any medical care.
his body was left to collapse without intervention, bearing the accumulated effects of torture and exhaustion, with indications of lethal injections that accelerated his decline.
he was released days before his death—not in recovery, but in his final stage. he was taken to al-kindi hospital, where doctors confirmed there was no hope of survival. he remained there only a few days before being returned home, unable even to move or turn in his bed, until he passed away.
fater is gone, leaving behind a marriage that never had the chance to fully begin, a home that was never built, and an open wound in the hearts of all who knew him.
what happened to him does not stop at torture or neglect. depriving a detainee of medical care and allowing him to reach this end is a form of killing—part of an entire method by which a human life is brought to an end.
it is repeated against alawites in these prisons, and through repetition becomes a fixed pillar of a genocide that does not declare itself, yet is practiced every day.
here, death does not come all at once.
