Wednesday evening, the IDF Spokesperson released video footage documenting the elimination of three armed Hezbollah operatives in Beit Yahoun, southern Lebanon. The footage, circulated by N12 correspondent Nitzan Shapira, shows the strike near the village. This release follows a sequence of reports and confirmations earlier in the evening.
At 19:18 Jerusalem, initial reports emerged of an Israeli Air Force strike on Beit Yahoun. Within the same minute, The Zioneer reported that the IDF had neutralized three Hezbollah operatives, identified in the village's security zone. The IDF then confirmed that troops from the 869th Combat Intelligence Collection Unit identified the operatives and the 401st Armored Brigade struck them to remove a threat. Official footage was subsequently released.
The operation is part of ongoing Israeli activity in the southern Lebanese security zone, where the IDF has reported striking over 70 Hezbollah infrastructure sites and eliminating multiple operatives since the ceasefire, as The Zioneer reported on June 14.
No further details on the operatives' identities or the precise circumstances of the strike have been provided.
