The IDF says troops struck Hezbollah surveillance equipment embedded inside a civilian building in southern Lebanon yesterday.

According to the military, the surveillance system was used by Hezbollah operatives to monitor and direct activity against troops in the area, in what the IDF says is another example of the terror group using civilian infrastructure in attacks on its forces.

In a separate incident, the unit also killed a Hezbollah operative who the IDF says was operating from a warehouse used to store weapons. The military says secondary explosions were identified following the strike, indicating the presence of munitions inside the structure.
