Overview
- The IDF reported that forces operating on the Ali al‑Taher Ridge identified a Hezbollah operative coming out of a tunnel access shaft and eliminated him with a precision aerial strike.
- In a separate strike the military said it hit a vehicle that posed an immediate threat to troops working inside the Security Zone.
- Golani Brigade units under the 36th Division uncovered weapons storehouses that the IDF says held launchers, machine guns, explosives and missiles intended for attacks on soldiers and civilians.
- Troops from the 551st Brigade demolished two tunnels near Majdal Zoun that the IDF described as roughly 200 meters long and about 20 meters deep to deny underground mobility.
- The IDF says it will continue these operations to remove threats, a push that analysts say could deepen humanitarian strain in southern Lebanon and further complicate the U.S.‑backed diplomatic track linking Israeli withdrawal to Hezbollah disarmament.
