A tunnel in southern Lebanon that the IDF says belonged to Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force was recently demolished by combat engineers.
The military describes the underground passage as one of Radwan’s central tunnels in Lebanon, which included a command center, a weapons depot, rooms to reside in, scooter bikes, and other equipment.
Next to the tunnel, the IDF says troops also located dozens of weapons and equipment belonging to Hezbollah.
Additionally, more than 50 other tunnel shafts and three other major tunnels were demolished by combat engineers under the 91st Division in southern Lebanon, the IDF says.
According to the IDF, more than 100 tons of explosives were used to demolish the four tunnels.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
