The IDF said the facilities were part of the group’s older entrenchment network and were no longer active.

The IDF destroyed a tunnel shaft and a weapons depot previously used by Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon on Sunday, the military stated.

Soldiers located and neutralized the shaft, where mortar rounds intended for use against Israel were found during the war, while other troops separately demolished a former Hezbollah weapons storehouse.

The IDF said the facilities were part of the group’s older entrenchment network and were no longer active, but were dismantled to prevent future exploitation.
