The IDF continues its policy of eradicating enemy villages south of Lebanon, today demolishing the Shiite village of Dabin, which once stood in what was southern Lebanon, according to reports circulating on social media. The village of Dabin, north of Marjeyoun, has been a repeated target of IDF operations over recent weeks, including a raid on Hezbollah depots there and the elimination of operatives.
An Israeli military operation today destroyed the Shiite village of Dabin in southern Lebanon, north of Marjeyoun, according to messages circulated on social media. The operation extends the IDF's campaign of dismantling former Hezbollah strongholds and infrastructure in the border area, which has included controlled demolitions in villages like Bint Jbeil, Khiam, and Barraghuz in recent weeks.
The village, which was previously abandoned, had been the site of an IDF raid on Hezbollah weapons depots some weeks ago, in which the military located significant arms caches used for staging anti-tank missile attacks on Israeli forces and communities. The IDF Arabic spokesman also published footage of an operative elimination in Dabin. The Lebanese Army briefly deployed in the area after an earlier IDF withdrawal but has not contested the resumed demolition.
The extent of the destruction and any casualties are not yet known from the available reports. This marks a continuation of Israel's policy of preventing enemy infrastructure from remaining in southern Lebanon, even in areas that have seen some withdrawal or temporary Lebanese Army deployment.
