Israeli troops operating in southern Lebanon located a Hezbollah anti-tank guided missile launcher that was aimed at Israel, the military says.

Reservists of the 8th Armored Brigade, operating under the 91st “Galilee” Regional Division, found that alongside the launcher were several anti-tank missiles, as well as other weapons and equipment.

The IDF says the division in recent days also directed airstrikes on buildings in southern Lebanon that were being used by Hezbollah, including a command center, and killed several members of the terror group.
