On Sunday night, Israeli fighter jets targeted an underground tunnel in Lebanon’s Bekaa region, reportedly used by Hezbollah to transport weapons from Syria. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that the tunnel had been attacked previously and was being rebuilt.
The IDF stated that it remains committed to preventing the tunnel’s restoration and future use.
Additional Hezbollah Targets Hit
Along with the tunnel strike, Israeli jets also:
- Destroyed weapons depots belonging to Hezbollah.
- Struck missile launchers that posed an immediate threat to Israel.
The IDF emphasized that these sites violated ceasefire agreements between Israel and Lebanon.
Growing Tensions in the Region
The latest airstrike highlights rising tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, as cross-border attacks have intensified in recent months. Israel continues to take preventive action to counter the movement of weapons in the region.
Israel’s Stance on Security
The Israeli military has repeatedly warned that it will not tolerate threats from Hezbollah. The IDF has vowed to continue operations to prevent arms smuggling and maintain regional stability.
