The IDF is conducting multiple airstrikes across southern Lebanon, according to reports. The strikes come as the military continues its unprecedented tunnel demolition campaign, with journalist Amit Segal (N12) reporting that the quantity of explosives being used exceeds anything used on any front in the war so far.
The IDF carried out multiple airstrikes across southern Lebanon this evening, according to incoming reports. The strikes are part of an ongoing tunnel demolition campaign that has been underway for hours — the military's latest action against Hezbollah infrastructure in the region. No immediate casualty figures are available.
As The Zioneer has reported since 22:05 Jerusalem this evening, the IDF first announced plans to demolish a "large underground infrastructure" in southern Lebanon, warning that the blast would be heard in northern Israel. Within minutes, the military's Home Front Command warned the explosion could trigger independent earthquake alert systems. Journalist Amit Segal (N12) then reported that the IDF was destroying a "massive" pre-built Hezbollah tunnel network using unprecedented quantities of explosives — larger than on any other front in the war. Segal's account was corroborated by multiple outlets, escalating from an initial single-source report to a confirmed, multi-sourced narrative.
The current airstrikes follow a pattern of sustained IDF operations in southern Lebanon. As The Zioneer reported on June 9, the military has been conducting widespread attacks in a "fire belt" pattern. Earlier this week, on June 22, the IDF confirmed it continued demolishing terror structures in the area. The scope of the tunnel network — described by Segal as "immense" — and the unprecedented scale of explosives used mark a significant escalation in the campaign against Hezbollah's underground assets.
The precise locations and targets of tonight's airstrikes remain unclear. The IDF has not commented on this specific wave of strikes. No confirmation has been received regarding the status of the main demolition operation first reported earlier this evening.
