IDF Strikes In Lebanon Reveal Advanced Iranian Anti-Aircraft Missiles


IDF strike in Lebanon seems to reveal Hezbollah possesses advanced Iranian anti-aircraft missiles



An Israeli airstrike earlier today in southern Lebanon seems to reveal that Hezbollah is in possession of advanced Iranian anti-aircraft missiles.

The IDF said earlier that it had targeted Hezbollah compounds in Najjarieh, south of Sidon, used by the terror group’s air defense unit.

The sites had “posed a threat to Israeli aircraft,” the military said.

Footage circulating on social media apparently shows the remains of an Iranian Sayyad-2 surface-to-air missile following one of the IDF strikes.

The missile is identified by Tal Inbar, an expert on missiles and drones, in a post on X.

It is apparently the first public evidence suggesting that Hezbollah has such missiles.
