The IDF said forces from the 551st Brigade Combat Team and the elite Yahalom unit, under Division 91, destroyed an underground route discovered in the village of Majdal Zoun in southern Lebanon's security zone. The military stated the complex—over 200 meters long and more than 25 meters deep—was built with Iranian technology and contained hundreds of weapons and four launch shafts aimed at Israel.
The IDF announced late Sunday that combat engineers and ground troops destroyed a major underground Hezbollah compound in the southern Lebanese village of Majdal Zoun, located inside the Israeli-declared security zone.
The military said the 551st Brigade Combat Team and the Yahalom special engineering unit, operating under the 91st Division, dismantled the underground route measuring more than 200 meters in length and over 25 meters in depth. According to the IDF, the facility was outfitted with Iranian-built technology and contained hundreds of weapons alongside four launch shafts oriented toward Israeli territory.
The operation expands on what The Zioneer has reported since June 18, when forces first entered Majdal Zoun on the ground. The Zioneer's earlier coverage documented a separate 200-meter tunnel destroyed at the same location minutes before this report (Sunday 23:49), plus a deeper 29-meter stronghold with 12 rooms revealed on June 21. This evening's strike therefore represents the third major underground asset neutralized in the village within the current operational push, each linked by the IDF to Iranian backing of Hezbollah's subterranean buildup near the border.
