The IDF is currently conducting controlled building demolitions in the Shiite village of Al-Khiam in southern Lebanon, according to security analyst Yair Goldblatt. The operation, reported at 13:49 Jerusalem time, involves the destruction of multiple structures. The military has not issued an official statement on the activity. The Zioneer has previously reported on similar IDF demolitions in the area. On July 19, the IDF was documented carrying out building explosions in Al-Khiam. Similar operations have been reported in the villages of Hadatha, Tebnit, and Majdal Zoun in late July and early August. These demolitions are part of the ongoing IDF campaign to dismantle Hezbollah infrastructure embedded in civilian areas of southern Lebanon, as part of efforts to prevent the re-establishment of Iranian-backed forces near the Israeli border.
