Since Hezbollah started its battle against the Israeli occupation forces along Lebanon's border with occupied Palestine in support of Gaza on October 6, 2023, media outlets as well as politicians and military experts have been trying to decipher all the aspects of the tough battle.

What is well known for everyone is that the Israeli enemy is launching air raids and bombarding with artillery shells various targets in South Lebanon and other areas in the nation, and that Hezbollah is firing missiles and artillery shells and launching assault drones at Galilee and Golan occupation sites and settlements.

According to an article, published by Al-Akhbar newspaper, what cannot be understood by the observers is that the battlefield has turned to be an unprecedented laboratory for both sides, in terms of the obligatory and unplanned handling of the field developments which impose innovative tactics and ways of using different weapons.

What makes the task difficult are the rules of engagement that impose numerous restrictions on the use of firepower in battles, which confuses the IOF accustomed to an unlimited use of power in Gaza and obliged to restrict it in Lebanon, the article added.

Ibrahim Al-Amin, the author of the article, noted that Hezbollah fighters, who mostly descend from the various towns and villages of South Lebanon, are restricted by the rules of engagement which ban them from using weapons, plans, and facilities prepared for a different battle and exert much pressure on them pertaining to the mobilization and exchange processes to the extent of forcing them to resort to fighting styles which date to the nineties of last century.

The author pointed out that the nature of the battlefield exposes Hezbollah fighters to a higher possibility of embracing martyrdom because of the adopted rules of engagement.

The Resistance has accumulated a considerable expertise in the technical confrontation over 11 months due to the dangers posed by the technical spy and its contribution to the martyrdom of a number of Hezbollah fighters, according to the article.

The article indicated that the Israeli enemy was obliged to find alternatives for the spy equipment destroyed by Hezbollah strikes in order to maintain the comprehensive technical control of the battle which is expected to elongate, adding that the Resistance, in turn, finds it mandatory to strike the re-installed spy devices of the Zionist enemy.

Hezbollah knows that the border battle is so costly regarding the human losses, but its decision is to keep on the front of supporting Gaza, the article maintained, noting that the Islamic Resistance has engaged in coming up with novel tactics to reduce the losses.

Israeli enemy Al-Akhbar article affirmed that the chats among the Israeli officers who fought in Gaza before moving to the border with Lebanon explain the hard situation of the IOF obliged to operate in accordance with the rules of engagement which impose movement restrictions at the bases and in the settlements in order to reduce the human (soldiers and settlers) and materialistic (houses and infrastructure) losses.

The article noted that the Israeli soldiers are ordered to take preventive measures, keep away from barracks and technological devices, resort to forests and fortified places and shun vehicles hit by Hezbollah missiles, pointing out that the soldiers in shelters pray so that Hezbollah missiles do not hit the cameras and spy devices which provide them with what is going on.

'If the cameras get hit, they start screaming and pleading the drone divisions to provide them with the needed data.

The enemy soldiers are also obliged to deal with the heavy missile fire which causes almost an earthquake and the sophisticated rockets (Almas) which surpasses the natural barriers.' The article highlighted the confidential procedure of the Israeli officials' visit to the north, noting that, only after they return to their offices, the tour gets disclosed.

According to Al-Akhbar article, the Israeli settlers shock the solders and shout at them, 'Listen, Hezbollah called us, warned us against hosting you in our houses and affirmed rockets would on us once we did that.' A security inquiry is conducted by the Israeli army in order let a company fix an equipment hit by Hezbollah, according to the article, whcih added that the IOF also must deal with the annoying sirens and rush evacuations.

Rush evacuations have injured a large number of Zionist settlers in the north, according to the article.

Hezbollah fighters are eager to fight without all the above restrictions which deserve to be scrutinized by the competent institutions, the article concluded.
