What kind of bomb did the Zionists use in the terror operation of Dahiya?

According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr News Agency Citing Al Jazeera, the Lebanese Hezbollah movement yesterday in a statement martyred Seyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of Hezbollah, in a terrorist attack by the army. The occupying regime approved the headquarters of Hezbollah’s central command in the southern suburbs of Beirut.

According to the report of the Zionist Army Radio, the fighters of this regime carried out a terrorist attack on the headquarters of Hezbollah in Dahiya. Beirut used about 85 bombs, each of which weighed approximately one ton, and in this terrible and criminal attack, Seyed Hassan Nasrallah and a group of his companions were martyred.

Some press sources, including the CNN network, reported the extent of widespread destruction caused by this attack in the suburbs of Beirut. created and completely razed 6 towers to the ground, as well as examining the size of the holes left by the explosions and the extent of the vibrations of this attack, show that probably the Zionist fighters used bombs weighing 2000 pounds (about one ton) US-made bombs match; The bombs that the Zionist army keeps in its arsenal and are designed to hit underground targets.

But the media of the Zionist regime, including this regime’s television, without official confirmation or denial of the use of American bombs in the attack They announced to the Beirut suburbs that the bombs used in this attack were of the “Mark 84” type; That is, the bombs that America makes.

“Mark 84” is one of the heaviest bombs made in America, which includes four types of bombs weighing 250 to 2000 pounds. . These bombs have a very high destruction capability; Because they contain a heavy load of explosives. The aluminum used in these explosives increases the amount of heat released and the intensity of the explosion.

According to the report of the US Army Ordnance Management Office, the locations targeted by these bombs include buildings, railways and communication lines, and these bombs can be used for other operations that require maximum explosive energy.

The mentioned bombs are bombs without precision guidance and are originally designed to cause widespread destruction, and therefore the use of They are prohibited in densely populated areas because of the great damage they cause to civilians. For example, Mark 84 bombs can cause widespread destruction within a radius of 400 meters. In addition to the direct casualties caused by these bombs, the sharp pieces that come out of them also directly kill people if they hit their bodies.

As a result, the use of these bombs in populated areas is strictly prohibited according to international humanitarian law, and if the aggressor cannot prove that the use of these bombs did not harm civilians, according to international laws he has committed a war crime and should be tried.

Here we must mention that in early May last year, the American government acted in a dramatic way to reduce the pressure of the opinions The world public stopped sending the shipment of Mark 80 heavy bombs to the Israeli army, but last June they sent these bombs to the Zionists again. The information indicates that Washington sent all kinds of Mark bombs to this regime within seven months after the start of the Zionist regime’s encroachment on the Gaza Strip, and it is likely that the Zionists have a stockpile of heavier bombs made by the United States.

Thus, the observers believe that the Zionist army deliberately launched and intends to wage a genocidal war against civilians. to repeat the crimes he committed in Gaza in the past year in Lebanon.

Marque type bombs have a much lower cost compared to guided bombs, which makes the military The occupier has a high desire to use these bombs. The cost of each of these bombs is between 3 and 16 thousand dollars; While the cost of guided bombs reaches up to 250 thousand dollars.

One ​​of the other advantages of brand bombs is that they are designed in a cylindrical shape and have a smooth movement in the air, and then They use a contact fuse to explode. As mentioned, these bombs are used to target underground centers and tunnels and fortified buildings; Because these bombs create a crater 11 meters deep and 15 meters in diameter.

Accordingly, the Zionist occupation regime intensified its pressure on the American government to continue supplying heavy ammunition and the United States The United States, knowing that Tel Aviv uses these bombs in civilian areas, provides them to the Zionists.

Evidences indicate that America has succumbed to these pressures of the Zionist regime and is trying to stop the invaders from using bombs. to justify heavy in densely populated areas. In a ludicrous claim, US officials say that the Israeli military drops the Mark bombs using a technique called “dive bombing,” in which the bomb is dropped in the target area without harming civilians. By estimating the number of civilians who were massacred in the attacks of Zionist fighters with these bombs, we can understand that these American claims are completely false.

In addition, the Israeli army revealed that it uses weapons that cause maximum damage in Gaza. and can extend this situation to Lebanon.

Last June, the United Nations reported that the Israeli occupation regime between October and December 2023, a It carried out a series of disproportionate air attacks on the Gaza Strip and used heavy bombs of 250 to 2000 pounds and specifically targeted residential buildings, refugee camps, schools and markets, which resulted in the massacre of nearly 300 civilians in just 6 attacks.

This report indicates that the occupying army repeatedly violated the basic principles of the laws of war. And in his attacks, he did not make any distinction between the military and civilians.

These facts and reports reveal the secret of the Zionists’ insistence on excessive use of these heavy bombs and show It shows that Tel Aviv’s goal is to cause mass killing and massacre of the largest number of Palestinian civilians, and now it has decided to drag its crimes into Lebanon. Therefore, the Zionists choose weapons that cause the most damage to civilian areas.
