Israel makes unusual move against Hezbollah

This operation is part of a broader campaign by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to undermine the capabilities of Hezbollah's Unit 4400, a unit responsible for smuggling weapons intended for terrorist activities against Israel and its forces. The IAF’s strike is seen as a key component in Israel’s ongoing efforts to cripple Hezbollah’s smuggling infrastructure and prevent it from utilizing Syrian territory to bolster its terrorist activities.

The IDF noted that Hezbollah, with backing from the Syrian regime, frequently exploits civilian infrastructure for smuggling weapons. These weapons are intended for attacks on Israeli civilians and IDF troops. "This strike is part of the IDF’s sustained operations to disrupt weapon transfers from Syria into Lebanon," the IDF stated.

The IDF reaffirmed its commitment to neutralizing any threat to Israel’s security. "The IDF will continue to take all necessary actions to eliminate threats and prevent Hezbollah from re-establishing its terrorist operations," the statement concluded.
