More on this story from yesterday.

Text:

In early February 2026, IDF forces located and destroyed a weapons depot belonging to the military-terrorist wing of the organization al-Jama’a al-Islamiyya in the Sunni village of Beit Jinn in southern Syria, at the foothills of Mount Hermon, near the Lebanese border. The depot contained weapons, mines, and communications equipment, and was used to advance terrorist activity against Israel from the southern Syrian arena.

The village of Beit Jinn, located approximately 6 km from the Israeli border, is a known center of terrorist activity for al-Jama’a al-Islamiyya and is geographically relatively close to the Sunni village of Habbariyeh, situated on the opposite side of Mount Hermon in southern Lebanon.

The village of Habbariyeh is also a known hub of the organization’s activity; on the night of 8–9 February, a senior operative was apprehended there by the IDF.

Both villages host military terrorist infrastructure of the organization, which constitutes the Lebanese branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. This military infrastructure operates under Hamas sponsorship and in coordination with Hezbollah.
