The 205th Reserve Armored Brigade moves into southern Lebanon, and has destroyed Hezbollah tunnels, prepared defensive positions, and other enemy infrastructure, says the IDF.

“The brigade eliminated a number of terrorists and destroyed dozens of terrorist targets from the air, from the ground and with artillery,” according to the IDF.

“Today we will remove the threat of attack on our country,” says Brigade commander Col. Yoav Scheider in a radio message to his troops before they move into Lebanon. “This is our mission, this is what we are tasked with.”
“We have a difficult battle ahead,” he says, “but the mission is clear, important and urgent.”
