The IDF publishes clips from the interrogations of Hezbollah operatives who were captured by Israeli troops in southern Lebanon.
The two operatives, members of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force, had planned to fire anti-tank missiles at troops, according to the IDF.
During their interrogation by the Military Intelligence Directorate’s Unit 504, which specializes in human intelligence, the operatives describe low morale among Hezbollah operatives.
The operatives say that Hezbollah joined the war to “avenge [the death] of Ali Khamenei” and that their commanders sent them “to die.”
It is unclear whether the statements were made under duress.
