WATCH: IDF destroys Hezbollah rocket launcher inside civilian structure
Israel Defense Forces troops on Wednesday discovered a Hezbollah launch position inside a civilian structure during a raid south of the truce line in Southern Lebanon.
“The launcher was directed toward Israeli territory and IDF soldiers operating in Southern Lebanon, posing an imminent threat to them,” stated the military. “The soldiers struck and dismantled the launcher in order to remove the threat.”
According to the IDF, “the Hezbollah terrorist organization continues to position terrorist infrastructure within and near to civilian infrastructure in order to advance attacks against the State of Israel and IDF soldiers.”

“We continue operating and are working to deepen our operational achievements and protect our troops,” the military chief said during the visit. “On the front lines, we are not ceasing fire.”
