On social networks, like X, formerly Twitter, some footage of the moment this ballistic missile was found in Lebanon almost buried under the rubble of a building. An event that has caused various analysts to express concerns that Hezbollah could use precision guidance systems with the Fateh-110, which would allow them to attack critical infrastructure with greater precision.
It should be noted that the Israeli airstrike, which was part of the ongoing military campaign against Hezbollah’s missile infrastructuretargeted an alleged arms depot in Mount Lebanon. And Israel has not stopped its efforts to attack the Lebanese militant group’s missile arsenals in Lebanon and Syria, as the group’s growing missile capability deems them a strategic threat.

Additionally, some reports suggest that the Lebanese militant group has had access to Fateh-110 since around 2014; although now it is this is the first time that a missile of this type has been discovered and confirmed on Lebanese soil.
