Israeli forces uncovered a large underground Hezbollah tunnel complex extending 200 meters near the village of Majdal Zoun, 8 km from the border, containing four launch shafts, 12 rooms, and over 50 drones, the military said. More than 20 Hezbollah operatives, including 10 from the Radwan Force, were killed in the operation.
The IDF revealed a major underground Hezbollah tunnel complex in the village of Majdal Zoun, approximately 8 km from the Israeli border, following a raid by the Yahalom special engineering unit and the 551st Brigade, according to a military source. The tunnel, dug 29 meters deep and extending roughly 200 meters, contained four launch shafts, 12 rooms for housing and storage, and dozens of weapons including over 50 explosive drones and more than 8 tons of additional munitions. More than 20 Hezbollah operatives were eliminated in the operation, 10 of them from the elite Radwan Force, the IDF said.
The complex was described as a "drone airfield" hidden beneath a rural civilian village. According to the military, assembled drones found there had a wingspan of 2.5 meters and a range of 200–500 km — capable of threatening not only northern Israel but most of the country's coastline. The discovery was part of ongoing ground operations in southern Lebanon since mid-2024.
As The Zioneer previously reported on this thread, the IDF has repeatedly uncovered Hezbollah underground infrastructure near the border — including a tunnel network used for approximately 400 launches, and weapons caches stored in civilian homes. The Majdal Zoun site was deliberately concealed beneath a village, the military stated, to exploit civilian cover.
