Three Hezbollah operatives were hospitalized at Ziv Medical Center in Safed on Friday morning under heavy IDF security, with military personnel guarding the room and the detainees kept handcuffed and blindfolded during treatment, according to a report by Galei Tzahal (IDF Radio). The report cited an unidentified source for the conditions of the admission, while the IDF spokesperson's unit declined to comment when approached. It was not immediately clear what injuries the operatives had sustained or how they came into IDF custody, though the security posture described — handcuffs, blindfolds, armed guards — suggests they are detained combatants receiving medical care. The hospital, located in the northern city of Safed, often treats casualties from the ongoing conflict along the Lebanon border. No independent confirmation of the report or its details was available at time of publication.
