The IDF's Arabic-language spokesman published video footage showing the elimination of Hezbollah operatives in the village of Dabin, north of Marjeyoun in southern Lebanon. The IDF recently withdrew from the area, according to Lebanese reports.
The IDF's Arabic-language spokesperson today published video footage documenting the elimination of Hezbollah operatives in the village of Dabin, north of Marjeyoun in southern Lebanon. The release came at 14:17 Jerusalem, roughly two hours after The Zioneer reported at 12:14 Jerusalem that the IDF's 769th Brigade had completed an operation in the same village, killing over 30 operatives and destroying dozens of terror infrastructure sites. The newly published footage appears to provide visual confirmation of that operation's outcome.
The IDF initially announced the 769th Brigade's completion of the operation at 12:03 Jerusalem, stating that over 30 Hezbollah operatives were killed and dozens of terrorist sites destroyed in a mission weeks in duration. By 12:04 Jerusalem, the IDF had disclosed that forces located 'significant' weapons depots in Dabin, which Hezbollah had used to stage anti-tank missile attacks. The Dabin thread has seen corroboration widen from a single IDF statement to video documentation, though the precise timestamp of the footage has not been disclosed.
Lebanese media reported that the IDF recently withdrew from the Dabin area, with the Lebanese Army subsequently deploying there to clear debris ahead of residents' return, as The Zioneer reported on June 4. The IDF characterized Dabin as a key Hezbollah staging ground for anti-tank missile fire. In parallel, The Zioneer reported at 23:02 Jerusalem on June 6 that the IDF destroyed the abandoned Shiite village of Barraghuz and Hezbollah tunnels near Hasbaya, as part of a broader policy to prevent enemy infrastructure in southern Lebanon.
The IDF has not provided a precise time for when the footage was filmed, and casualty figures beyond the earlier operational statement remain unverified from independent sources.
