The IDF announced that the 401st Brigade completed its eight-month mission in southern Lebanon, dismantling over 1,200 Hezbollah terror infrastructure sites, including underground routes, and eliminating more than 60 operatives. The brigade also located over 600 weapons. The brigade commander said the operation was aimed at preventing threats to Israeli civilians.
The IDF on Sunday released detailed operational figures from the 401st Brigade's completed eight-month mission in southern Lebanon, revealing that troops dismantled over 1,200 Hezbollah infrastructure sites, including underground routes stretching hundreds of meters, and eliminated more than 60 Hezbollah terrorists. The brigade also located over 600 weapons during the operation, the military said.
The announcement follows an earlier bulletin published by The Zioneer at 11:14 Jerusalem time confirming the mission's completion. The new figures provide the full scope of the brigade's achievements under the 91st Division, which has been conducting sustained operations in southern Lebanon since the start of the conflict.
The 401st Brigade's operations have been part of a broader IDF effort to dismantle Hezbollah's infrastructure near the border. In previous weeks, The Zioneer reported on the 91st Division's elimination of over 35 terrorists in a single week and the destruction of a massive tunnel network in the area. The IDF continues to focus on removing threats to allow the return of evacuated residents of northern Israel.
