Troops of the 146th Division during operations in the western sector of southern Lebanon located several rocket launchers aimed at Israel, the military says.
During scans, the IDF says the troops found and destroyed launchers, mortars, dozens of rockets, ammunition crates, and assault rifles.
“The IDF operates in accordance with the understandings between Israel and Lebanon, while maintaining the terms of the ceasefire,” the military says.
Troops are still deployed to southern Lebanon, and the military says it will “act in the face of any threat to the State of Israel and its citizens.”
