Troops of the 7th Armored Brigade operating in the eastern sector of southern Lebanon located a Hezbollah anti-tank missile launching post, where an operative had been killed in a recent airstrike.

The IDF says the troops found several Russian-made Kornet anti-tank missiles at the site, along with a drone that was primed for launch at Israel.

The brigade, operating under the 98th Division, has been raiding what the army calls “an area that serves as a significant terror stronghold for Hezbollah.”

The military says troops have located several Hezbollah fighting positions, weapon depots, bunkers and other infrastructure amid the ongoing operation.
