During recent operations in southern Lebanon, the IDF says ground troops demolished several Hezbollah sites, including weapon depots.

Troops of the 769th “Hiram” Regional Brigade operated in several Lebanese border villages, and destroyed an anti-tank missile storage facility, a weapons depot, a building used by Hezbollah to launch anti-tank missiles at Israel during the war, and other infrastructure, the military says.

The IDF says the presence of the weapons and Hezbollah infrastructure in the area “constitutes a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon.”
