Can anyone translate what they're actually saying? I'm used to associating "Allahu Akbar" with Islamic battle cries, but it sounds like they're saying "Allah As-Salaaam".

According to translate

Sayara, ya shabab = plane, you youngsters/guys

Udrub = hit/punch (they are cheering for the drone impact)

Musayara = drone

and yes they are cheering the strike on the Burger Empire base

'Allahu Akbar' means 'God is great'. It has nothing to do with battle.

"Allahu Akbar" is not exactly a battle cry tbf.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As-salamu_alaykum

now i don't speak arabic, but i'm betting as-salamu means either peace or be with you and allah means god, so "allah as-salam" i'm guessing by process of elimination it means either (~~god peace~~ [no]) or (god be with you [yes this one])

Adrob Adrob Tel Aviv! (Note: Memri is Israeli propaganda. This is a banger song and I think the translations are correct here. Memri deleted it after people started liking attacks on Israel, so I trust it lol)
