IDF reveals massive Hezbollah drone-launch tunnel dozens of meters deep

Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 19:04

TL;DR

The IDF has revealed an enormous Hezbollah tunnel, buried dozens of meters underground, built specifically for drone launches, accompanied by footage of the site. The discovery comes amid a series of underground infrastructure exposed by Israeli forces in southern Lebanon in recent weeks.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The IDF has released footage of a large Hezbollah tunnel, dozens of meters underground, designed for drone launches against Israel. The military described it as a 'giant tunnel' and published video documentation of the shaft. The announcement adds to a series of underground Hezbollah assets uncovered by Israeli forces operating in southern Lebanon since the ground incursion began. As The Zioneer has previously reported (June 7, 16, and other dates), the IDF has exposed a network of tunnels beneath the Beaufort Ridge, a drone factory and launch site inside a mountain, and multiple weapons caches — all part of a multi-year Hezbollah project funded by Iran. A single IDF announcement is the source of the current disclosure; no independent confirmation has been reported yet. Details on the exact location and timing of the discovery remain pending.
