TL;DR

Images circulating Tuesday evening show the village of Majdal Zoun in southern Lebanon before and after the demolition of underground infrastructure two days ago, revealing a massive crater carved into the village. The demolition was part of IDF operations in the area, according to Israeli media reports.

01 · THE DISPATCH

New imagery released Tuesday evening documents the scale of the demolition of underground infrastructure in the village of Majdal Zoun, southern Lebanon, which occurred two days ago. The images show a before-and-after comparison of the site, with a massive crater now visible in the heart of the village. The IDF had previously engaged in demolition operations in Majdal Zoun, including the booby-trapping and detonating of buildings, as The Zioneer reported (June 13). The Lebanese army visited the village earlier Tuesday, two days after the blast, in what appeared to be an inspection visit. The initial explosion was first reported by Israeli channels on Sunday, June 29. The identity of the infrastructure — whether a Hezbollah tunnel, weapons depot, or other facility — has not been officially confirmed by the IDF.
