Defense Minister Israel Katz said Sunday evening that the Ali Taher ridge is part of the 'Yellow Line' — the IDF's security zone in southern Lebanon — and that the military is preparing operationally to take control of the ridge and prevent Hezbollah from re-establishing a presence. 'Anyone who approaches the ridge will be destroyed,' Katz warned.
The Ali Taher ridge has been a focal point of IDF operations in southern Lebanon. As The Zioneer has previously reported, the military destroyed Hezbollah's tunnel network there and confirmed operational control of the area in recent months. Katz's statement reaffirms Israel's commitment to maintaining the security zone and preventing Hezbollah's return.
