Additional footage of the explosion at the Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon has been posted, The Zioneer reports, citing a full report on ynet. The clip offers a fresh angle on the blast that rocked the ridge earlier Thursday evening, adding to a growing body of visual evidence from the scene.
The thread of reporting on the incident unfolded rapidly Thursday evening. At 20:58 Jerusalem, Kan News reported that the IDF was preparing to demolish terror tunnels in the al-Taher area. Shortly thereafter, footage circulated on Israeli Telegram channels purporting to show the destruction of tunnels on the strategic ridge, as reported by ynet. Journalist Yair Goldblatt then posted a clip of the explosion, followed by security camera footage published by military correspondent Nir Dvori (N12) showing homes shaking from the blast. The latest footage provides another vantage point of the explosion itself.
The Ali al-Taher ridge is a known strategic location near the Israeli border. As The Zioneer reported on June 19, 2026, explosions and fire were previously seen at the same ridge, attributed by Lebanese sources to explosive devices. The IDF's operation in the area has focused on dismantling Hezbollah's underground infrastructure, with earlier reports indicating the military was preparing controlled demolitions.
The cause of the explosion remains unconfirmed, and no casualties have been reported. It is not yet clear whether the blast was a planned demolition or a separate incident.
