Israeli forces operating in the village of Majdal Zoun in southern Lebanon, about 10 km from the border, have uncovered a major Hezbollah fortified compound. The site, which was struck from the air during the war and later reached by ground troops, contained Iranian-made drones and large quantities of explosives hidden underground, according to the Israeli military.
The overnight IDF disclosure, released Sunday night, reveals that the fortified compound in Majdal Zoun — approximately 10 km from the border — contained Iranian-made drones and large quantities of explosives hidden underground. The site was struck from the air during the war and later reached by ground troops on foot, according to the military.
This is the latest in a series of IDF disclosures Sunday centered on the same village. At 19:03 Jerusalem, the IDF first revealed a massive drone-launch tunnel dozens of meters deep (version 1), followed by a drone assembly tunnel (version 2). By 19:03, the military released details of a 29-meter-deep tunnel with 12 rooms and four launch shafts aimed at Israel (version 3), then a 200-meter network where over 20 Hezbollah operatives were killed (version 4). Special forces subsequently located a strategic underground route with hundreds of weapons and four launch shafts (version 5), and a separate tunnel with hundreds of weapons and four launch shafts was unveiled (version 6). The thread has evolved from single-tunnel descriptions to a complex of interconnected underground facilities with corroborated footage and steadily increasing detail.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Sunday, the IDF uncovered an underground drone "airfield" with hundreds of drones and missiles, and a separate tunnel with launch shafts. A drone factory hidden inside a mountain was also seized. The background context includes a weapons cache found in Majdal Zoun on Thu Jun 18, as well as reports of clashes on Jun 13. The IDF has not yet released footage or a full inventory of the weapons recovered in this latest raid, and it remains unclear whether all these disclosures refer to distinct tunnels or overlapping discoveries within the same facility. Unverified details about the number of operatives killed and the exact location of the stronghold relative to previously disclosed tunnels await further confirmation.
