Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has released footage showcasing its new underground missile facility, “Imad 5“, with a strong commitment to ongoing confrontation against the occupation state until victory. The footage, shared by resistance media, displays Hezbollah fighters riding motorcycles through forested areas before entering the tunnel of the Imad 5 missile facility.

The video, accompanied by the words of martyred Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, declares: “We will never leave the battlefield… We will never lay down our weapons.” The footage reveals resistance fighters traversing the tunnel, which is equipped with missile launch pads and operational areas, marked by signs commemorating the slain leader, including the inscription, “We swear by your blood.”

Meanwhile, amid ongoing resistance operations, Hezbollah announced a drone attack on Israel’s Eliakim military base, located south of Haifa. According to the resistance, the base contains training barracks and units from the northern command of the Israeli army. Hezbollah also targeted a group of occupation forces in the Metulla settlement with a guided missile, causing fatalities and injuries. The resistance group also struck the Beit Lid military base east of the occupied city of Netanya with a barrage of missiles.

The unveiling of Imad 5 follows the 16 August reveal of another facility named Imad 4, both named after the late Imad Mughniyeh, a key Hezbollah figure who was assassinated by Israel in 2008. Mughniyeh, also known as Al-Hajj Radwan, was the movement’s military chief. The announcement implied the existence of multiple underground facilities of the same type.
