Watch moment Israeli blitz destroys Hezbollah rocket base hidden in ‘civilian’ home sending missile flying out of rubble

THIS is the moment an Israeli blitz destroys Hezbollah rocket bases hiding inside civilian homes.

Footage shows rubble flying and houses being wiped out as the IDF targets the terror group it claims is using human shields.

One clip shows a home being hit with an airstrike and then a missile subsequently flying out of it into the house next door.

Other clips show ammo burning and exploding in secondary eruptions after homes were hit in airstrikes.

Israeli military officials claimed to have even targeted a massive one-tonne warhead hidden in a tiny attic.

An image released by the IDF of the missile shows the huge bomb on a launcher filling up the small room.

They say the militants are hiding medium-range rockets, short-range rockets, and even unmanned aerial vehicles in homes.

Hezbollah, it claims, is effectively using civilians as human shields in order to try and keep their terror arsenal safe.

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said the strikes were “a proactive offensive operation.”

Halevi said: “We are taking [away] military infrastructure that Hezbollah built for 20 years. This is very significant.

“We are striking targets, preparing the next stages… in the end, everything needs to be aimed at creating the conditions to return the [displaced] residents of the north to their homes.”

The IDF targeted 1,600 Hezbollah targets in strikes on Monday with at least 492 people killed and 1,645 injured, including 35 children.

The grim death toll is the highest daily tally since the end of the 1975-90 civil war.

Israel warned civilians through hacked radio broadcasts, text messages, and phone calls about the strikes – giving them two hours to get away from Iran’s proxy.

Ten of thousands of residents fled from the south in desperate search of shelter as Israel pounded targets with airstrikes.

The main highway out of the southern port city of Sidon was jammed with cars heading toward Beirut in a staggering mass exodus.

In a statement yesterday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to Lebanese civilians.

He said: “For too long, Hezbollah has been using you as human shields.

“It placed rockets in your living rooms and missiles in your garage. Those rockets and missiles are aimed directly at our cities, directly at our citizens.

“Once our operation is finished, you can come back safely to your homes.”

Among those killed in recent days have been a number of Hezbollah’s top commanders.

Ibrahim Aqil – a terror master on the US most wanted list for 40 years with a $7million (£526 million) price on his head – was the biggest scalp claimed in the IDF blast on southern Beirut on Friday.

One source told Israeli news outlet Ynet that people could consider the fighting the “Third Lebanon War”.

After almost a year of war against Hamas in Gaza on its southern border, Israel is shifting its focus to the northern frontier.

It is where Iran-backed Hezbollah has been firing rockets into Israel in support of Hamas, also backed by Iran.

Israel claims it has foiled a plot to stage an assault similar to the devastating October 7 assault by Palestinian terror group Hamas.

President Isaac Herzog said Hezbollah commanders killed in strikes on Friday in Beirut were meeting to plan a shocking massacre.

The fresh strikes come after heavy exchanges last week with Israel launching its most intense blitz of the war and bombing an apartment building.

On Sunday, Hezbollah launched around 150 rockets and missiles into Israel in retaliation for strikes that killed top commanders Friday.

Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said citizens will have to “show composure” to “achieve our goal to return the northern residents safely to their homes“.

Pager and walkie-talkie strike

The spike in fighting follows the coordinated pager and walkie-talkie blitz last week with Israel sabotaging communications devices.

The attacks were aimed at Hezbollah and hit the terror group’s fighters and civilians in Lebanon and Syria.

The strikes, which hit Tuesday and Wednesday, killed at least 39 and left thousands more injured.

Doctors in Lebanon have been overwhelmed by casualties after two waves of blasts – with many left blinded.

Skilled physicians say they have never had to surgically remove more eyes before as Hezbollah’s boss labelled the strikes a possible “declaration of war” from Israel.

One of those injured was the Iranian envoy to the country who has reportedly lost an eye.

Hezbollah’s boss Hassan Nasrallah said the group intends to seek revenge for the attacks that “crossed over all the red lines” and will not stop until the war in Gaza ends.

Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani said he “condemned the terrorist act of the Zionist regime… as an example of mass murder”.

Israel reportedly planted the explosives inside the pagers in a years’ long operation that involved firms in Taiwan and Hungary.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps has ordered all members to stop using any types of communication devices, Reuters reports.

Celeb SAS star signs up for new BBC show months after quitting big TV comeback

A CELEBRITY SAS star has signed up for another TV show months after quitting his planned telly comeback.

Dancer Louie Spence will be hoping he can fare better on his new BBC show after pulling out of Celeb SAS just hours into filming earlier this year.

The Sun can exclusively reveal that the former Pineapple Dance Studios star will be among the celebs on the next series of Celebrity Antiques Road Trip.

A whole new set of famous faces will once again be teaming up with the experts in order to see if they have an eye for a bargain-priced antique that could return them a profit at auction.

A source told The Sun: “Louie was super excited for the opportunity to star on Celeb Antiques Road Trip.

“These days Louie lives a much calmer life than what many people think as a result of his many showbiz shenanigans over the years so this show was right up his street.

“He had been plotting a major TV comeback on Celeb SAS but after all that went awry, he knew he would be in safe hands giving Antiques Road Trip a go.

“Bosses at the BBC were delighted to have him on board and know that his one-liners will be TV gold.”

The Sun previously revealed that reality TV icon Charlotte Crosby has signed up for the programme and we can now confirm she and Louie partnered up for filming 12 years after they appeared in the Celebrity Big Brother house together.

Last month, we told how BBC bosses were left over the moon to secure Charlotte for the show as she continues to be a major face of the Beeb.

It is set to become her fourth BBC show in just 12 months after winning over viewers with her infectious personality.

Producers at Antiques Road Trip were understood to be ecstatic at reuniting Charlotte and Louie 12 years on from their CBB madness.

It will be the first time the duo have appeared on-screens together since their stint in the infamous house.

Antiques Road Trip will be Louie’s first TV role since it was revealed he quit Celeb SAS after less than 24 hours amid the brutal conditions.

The Sun told how Louie had barely started the gruelling selection process when he walked away.

A TV insider said: “He seemed thrilled to be surrounded by all the hunky instructors, who all came from military backgrounds that required them to have an elite level of fitness. But he was less enamoured with the regime they had to maintain, with Louie unable to keep up with them physically and mentally.

“Despite this he left without any bad feeling and was grateful for the opportunity — even though his experience was a brief one.”

In SAS: Who Dares Wins, contestants take on a tough selection process for the elite regiment.
