Israeli troops conducted a raid in the southern Lebanon village of Dibbine, located some 12 kilometers north of Israel’s border, several weeks ago, the IDF announces.
Dibbine is also north of the IDF’s “forward defense line,” demarcating Israel’s security zone in southern Lebanon.
The military says troops of the 769th “Hiram” Regional Brigade located “significant” weapon depots during the raid. The Israeli Air Force also struck some 50 targets amid the operation, destroying dozens of Hezbollah sites and killing operatives, according to the IDF.
The IDF says the village was used by Hezbollah to advance attacks, including anti-tank missile fire, on troops and Israel.
The brigade previously raided Dibbine in April, before the ceasefire in Lebanon took effect.
