01 · THE DISPATCH

Tonight, the IDF Spokesperson released a photo of a Hezbollah weapons cache discovered in a bedroom of a civilian home in the village of Tallousa, southern Lebanon. The cache, which includes anti-tank missiles, RPG rockets, explosive devices, vests, helmets, and Hezbollah flags, was located by soldiers of the 769th Brigade. The find underscores Hezbollah's continued use of civilian areas for military storage.

The first reports of the cache emerged at 17:59 Jerusalem from Israeli media, citing initial IDF statements. Within the same hour, the IDF Spokesperson confirmed the discovery, specifying that the 769th Brigade was responsible. Subsequent updates from the military detailed the contents of the cache and released photographic evidence.

The Zioneer has previously reported on similar Hezbollah tactics. On June 9, the IDF found a weapons cache next to a baby crib in the villages of Zawtar al-Gharbiyah and Zawtar al-Sharqiyah. On June 20, Hezbollah itself published a video showing the use of civilian homes as launch pads for attacks on Israel. On June 23, tunnel entrances were located inside civilian homes in the western sector of southern Lebanon. These findings, along with the capture of a drone factory on June 21, illustrate the depth of Hezbollah's military infrastructure embedded in civilian areas.

The IDF has not provided further details on the operation in Tallousa, including whether any suspects were detained or if the cache was booby-trapped. The village is within the Security Zone, where Israeli forces continue to operate.
