248: Chapter 348 The fighter jets are basically no longer capable of combat.
After breaking through the defensive positions of Israel, the Golan Heights Front Command advanced all the way, successively capturing two large airbases of Israel and rooting out various military strongholds of Israel in the northern territory of Palestine.
After occupying Safed, Major General Zaha commanded the Syrian army to continue pushing south, engaging in battle with an infantry brigade of new recruits stationed by Israel near Migdal.
This infantry brigade of new recruits was composed of half reservists and half newly conscripted soldiers from Israel, who were thrown onto the battlefield without having even finished their military training.
After Major General Zaha led three Mechanized Infantry Brigades to besiege Migdal, he used the Fierce Tiger series Armored Vehicle to launch a surprise attack on the positions of Israel's new recruit infantry brigade.
Caught off guard, these new recruit units collapsed without holding out for long; apart from a small number who fled, the rest had no choice but to surrender.
Major General Zaha subsequently pushed all the way to Tiberias, linking up with a Mechanized Infantry Brigade from Iraq.
During the attack on Tiberias, Major General Zaha utilized the artillery superiority of the Mechanized Infantry Brigades and the Tianlong Series UAV, letting the Israeli army taste the same experience that Syria suffered when they were being bombed by Israel in the past.
Under continuous high-intensity shelling, the Israeli army could only defend passively.
Now, the fighter jets of the Israeli army basically have no combat capability, most of their UAVs have been depleted, and the remaining ones can only maintain occasional reconnaissance, unable to conduct independent combat operations.
It can be said that during such a long period of fighting against the Anti-Judea Coalition, the Israeli Air Force has basically been shot down by the Anti-Judea Coalition using the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missile, and those that were not shot down have lost the ability to return to the battlefield due to various damages.
After all, the Israeli Air Force currently lacks sufficient spare parts for repairs and can only "rob Peter to pay Paul," dismantling parts from already damaged fighter jets to repair those still in better operational condition.
However, those barely repaired fighter jets cannot hold up for long; after completing one or two combat missions, they require major repairs again, consuming even more spare parts.
The continuous depletion has not only caused a severe shortage of spare parts for Israel's fighter jets but also a shortage of aviation fuel.
The result is that fewer and fewer fighter jets and UAVs of the Israeli Air Force can take off, and it has gradually lost control over Israel's airspace.
The Anti-Judea Coalition has basically taken control of Israel's airspace, and after issuing navigation warning orders, the fighter jets of the USA cannot set foot in Israel's airspace.
It can be said that the Anti-Judea Coalition's Tianlong Series UAV can reign supreme in this sky.
After completing the encirclement and bombardment of Tiberias, Major General Zaha, in cooperation with Iraq, launched a full-scale offensive against the remaining Israeli troops.
The Israeli garrison here completely lost the confidence to fight, losing the entire city in just two days, and was completely wiped out.
On the other side, the Lebanese army and the Iranian army fought jointly, annihilating one and a half infantry brigades of new recruits of Israel in the Ilka area, and subsequently marched towards Acre.
Seeing the Anti-Judea Coalition getting closer and closer, the Israeli army felt that Acre had no positions that could be held and wanted to retreat to Haifa for defense.
However, they did not expect the Lebanese army and the Iranian army to advance so quickly; before they could transfer, they were surrounded in Acre.
Major General Moss and Major General Rahim inspected the defense situation of the entire city from the outskirts of Acre.
After some reconnaissance and analysis, they believed that the Israeli army could not hold Acre, as there were not many strategic locations, nor had sufficient defensive fortifications been built.
Seeing an opportunity to quickly capture Acre, Major General Moss and Major General Rahim did not hesitate and immediately ordered the Lebanese army and the Iranian army to launch a full-scale offensive, taking advantage of the time while Israel was establishing positions to simply break through their defensive lines and completely capture Acre.
The offensive situation also matched the expectations of Major General Moss and Major General Rahim; after being attacked, the Israeli army was broken through before they could build perfect fortifications, and subsequently, they were completely annihilated in the encirclement and piecemeal destruction.
Capturing Acre also opened the passage to attack Haifa.
As the main force for the attack on Haifa, the Iranian army rushed straight to Haifa without stopping, and after clearing the peripheral positions, they surrounded the Israeli army in Haifa from the east and south.
The north and west are both the sea, and unless the Israeli military can mobilize a large number of ships, it will be impossible for the Israeli army in Haifa to escape their predicament.
Major General Rahim did not choose to attack after surrounding Haifa.
After all, as an important city of Israel, Haifa had built many defensive fortifications and had many troops stationed there, which could not be successfully captured in a short time.
After besieging Haifa, gradually whittling down and annihilating the Israeli army was the correct approach.
This could cause panic in the Israeli army, force some Israeli officers and soldiers to surrender, and at the same time reduce casualties for the Iranian army.
Of course, in addition to besieging Haifa, Major General Rahim also dispatched two Mechanized Infantry Brigades, together with the Lebanese army, to clear out the Israeli settlements in the northern territory of Palestine and root out the various settlements established by Israel.
Such a combat mission was a very easy task for the Lebanese army.
Although there were a small number of regular Israeli troops in the settlements, they were mostly Israeli military police units who only knew how to bully others; in front of the Lebanese army, they were simply no match.
Now that the Lebanese army is equipped with so many Fierce Rhino series Tank, Fierce Tiger series Armored Vehicle, and Fierce Lion series Artillery, it is no longer the poorly equipped unit that fought against the Israeli army more than twenty years ago.
Back then, they could be suppressed and beaten by the Israeli army, only able to carry out small-scale resistance, but now they can face the Israeli army head-on, let alone Israel's military police units.
When rooting out the Israeli settlements, there were basically no large-scale wars, and the troops deployed were not many, but they were all able to successfully eliminate the armed personnel of Israel.
After clearing the settlements in the north of Israel, the Lebanese army and the Syrian army encountered an Israeli reserve infantry division sent as reinforcements in the Nazareth area, and both sides soon entered into a fierce battle.
This reserve unit was relatively much stronger in combat capability, but under the command of Major General Moss, five Mechanized Infantry Brigades successively arrived as reinforcements, quickly surrounding this reserve infantry division of Israel.
In order to reduce casualties, Major General Moss did not launch a general offensive immediately, but instead besieged them in the Nazareth area, attracting Israel to send more reinforcements to see if they could "besiege a point to strike the reinforcements."
