The IDF published a summary of its activities against Hezbollah in the past 14 months, as a ceasefire between Israel and the terror group appears to hold.

Over 12,500 Hezbollah targets were struck, including 1,600 command centers and 1,000 weapons depots, according to the military.

During the ground offensive, 14 IDF brigade-level task forces participated, and separately, over 100 special operations were carried out.

The IDF says it has confirmed with high confidence the deaths of 2,500 Hezbollah operatives, though it estimates that number to be around 3,500.

Among the dead are Hezbollah’s former longtime leader, Hassan Nasrallah, and 13 members of the terror group’s top leadership.

Also among the dead are four Hezbollah commanders at the division level, 24 brigade-level commanders, 27 battalion-level commanders, 63 company-level commanders, and 22 platoon-level commanders.

The IDF says it has captured some 12,000 explosive devices and drones; 13,000 rockets, launchers, and anti-tank and anti-aircraft missile systems; and 121,000 pieces of communications equipment and computers.
