In a significant blow to Hezbollah’s militant operations, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have demolished a command center tunnel in southern Lebanon. The underground facility was used to coordinate rocket attacks on Israeli towns in the Galilee region over the past year.
According to the IDF, combat engineers from the elite Yahalom unit discovered a cache of weapons, surveillance systems, and military equipment within the tunnel. Additionally, multiple weapons depots were uncovered in the area, including one hidden within a mosque. These depots contained hundreds of explosive devices, firearms, grenades, and other weaponry.
The IDF’s successful operation is a major setback for Hezbollah’s militant activities in the region. The destruction of the tunnel and associated weapons depots demonstrates Israel’s commitment to protecting its citizens from rocket attacks and disrupting Hezbollah’s operations.
The operation was carried out after a thorough investigation by the Yahalom unit, which specializes in combat engineering and explosives. The IDF’s actions are seen as a significant achievement in the ongoing efforts to counter Hezbollah’s militant activities in the region.
