The IDF says its forces operating in southern Lebanon discovered and destroyed Hezbollah weapons caches in recent days, containing explosives, weapons, launchers, machine guns, and missiles. The military stated that all weapons were destroyed and that operations will continue to remove any threat to Israeli forces and civilians.
The IDF provided further details Friday afternoon, July 10, at 12:11 Jerusalem, on the Hezbollah weapons caches it destroyed in southern Lebanon, specifying that the caches contained explosives, weapons, launchers, machine guns, and missiles. The announcement follows The Zioneer's earlier reporting Friday that the military had destroyed additional caches.
The Zioneer's coverage of the events began at 10:02 Jerusalem Friday, when the IDF first reported that soldiers had dismantled weapons facilities containing launchers, machine guns, explosive devices, and missiles in the Security Zone. By 10:44, the IDF confirmed that the Golani Brigade, operating under Division 36, had located and destroyed a weapons warehouse, and later that additional caches were destroyed. The reports have been consistent across multiple newsrooms, including i24NEWS and Yediot News, with the IDF spokesperson providing on-record statements.
The operations are part of a sustained Israeli campaign in southern Lebanon targeting Hezbollah's military infrastructure. As The Zioneer reported on June 29, the IDF has been actively destroying Hezbollah terror infrastructure, and on June 21, the military said its main effort was the destruction of an underground Hezbollah compound. The IDF has also reported eliminating Hezbollah operatives and preventing rescue attempts, as covered on June 27.
The IDF stated that all weapons were destroyed and that operations will continue to remove any threat. No further details on the scale of the caches or potential future targets were provided.
