Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that the army cleared the tunnels beneath this ridge of Hezbollah fighters. According to the Israeli version, the complex included command facilities, weapons storage, generators, sleeping and living quarters, showers, and a kitchen. The Ali Taher location is situated in southern Lebanon, north of the Litani River, on the edge of the area occupied by Israel. STVR (Minute by Minute) ↗
Israel claims that by occupying the ridge, it has strengthened its security zone in southern Lebanon. The army previously indicated that its units will not withdraw from the area until the threat from Hezbollah is, according to it, eliminated. The Iran-backed movement did not provide detailed comments on the Israeli claims. teraz.sk ↗
