IDF Reports 60% of Terror Infrastructure Destroyed in Southern Lebanon
by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Washington D.C. Bureau Chief
(Worthy News) – The Israel Defense Forces has destroyed roughly 60% of Hezbollah terror infrastructure in Lebanese villages where Israeli forces are operating in southern Lebanon, a senior Northern Command officer told Walla on Monday.
The officer said Israeli forces are operating without restrictions against Hezbollah positions, weapons sites, and underground infrastructure across the border area.
“Everywhere we identify an enemy, we attack,” the officer said, adding that Hezbollah is being hit daily with “painful blows” and that the military has standing orders to expand operations when necessary.
According to the officer, the IDF has divided its mission in southern Lebanon into two operational zones: the area up to the Forward Defense Line and the territory north of it. South of that line, Israeli forces are focused on destroying Hezbollah infrastructure and clearing the area of militants. North of the line, the IDF is carrying out more targeted operations.
Troops from the 769th Brigade, operating under the 91st Division, continue to work south of the Forward Defense Line to remove threats to Israeli civilians living near the northern border.
The officer said the IDF is using a wide range of firepower, including shoulder-fired missiles, anti-tank weapons, precision-guided munitions, mortars, drones, fighter jets, and airstrikes. “There’s no way I identify an enemy and don’t attack it,” he said.
Hezbollah, meanwhile, has largely avoided direct confrontation with Israeli troops, relying instead on drones, rockets, mortar shells, and occasional anti-tank fire, according to the officer.
“They don’t want to face me directly; they don’t want contact,” he said. “Most of their force is expressed through drone operations and high-trajectory fire.”
IDF assessments indicate that hundreds of terrorists from Hezbollah and other organizations remain between the Forward Defense Line and the Litani River. Israeli forces are actively seeking and striking those operatives, the officer said.
Within the IDF-controlled zone, which spans roughly 600 square kilometers and includes 63 villages, the military says it has destroyed 60% of targeted structures connected to Hezbollah activity.
“Every enemy or terror infrastructure within the Forward Defense Line is destroyed,” the officer said. “Not a single one will remain. We operate systematically, in an orderly, very organized manner against enemy infrastructure.”
The officer said troops have documented Hezbollah’s activity, including underground facilities, tunnels, weapons caches, and other military assets discovered inside civilian structures.
He added that many homes in the area were being used for terrorist purposes, including storing weapons, concealing tunnels, or holding incitement materials.
“Every second house contains something — arms, underground facilities, tunnels, incitement materials,” the officer said. “We will not allow this to happen again.”
The latest remarks underscore Israel’s determination to prevent Hezbollah from rebuilding the kind of entrenched border network that allowed the Iranian-backed terror group to threaten Israeli communities for years. For Israel, the campaign in southern Lebanon is not only a military operation but a defensive effort to ensure that families in the north can one day return home without living under the shadow of rockets, drones, and cross-border attacks.
