Monitoring IDF ground operations in southern Lebanon - 24.04.26 update

Since the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon went into effect, Israeli forces continued their advances on the ground.

Newly released Sentinel 2 satellite imagery (via @SoarAtlas
and the copernicus data space ecosystem) confirms new Israeli ground activity in the following areas:
- Bayada
- Chamaa
- Beit Lif
- Rachaf
- Hanine
- At-Tayri
- Bint Jbeil / Ainata
- Maroun Al-Ras
- Mays Al-Jabal
- Houla
- Markaba
- Aadchit (Al-Qusayr)
- Area between Al-Qusayr and Deir Seryan
- Khiam

Additionally, hints of ground activity are visible in Dibbine, where the IDF confirmed to have carried out a raid shortly before the ceasefire. It is likely that the IDF withdrew from the area again, as it lies outside of the yellow line.

In Bint Jbeil, Israeli forces seem to have reached a majority of the city. However, Hezbollah still appears to be present in some areas, as clashes erupted yesterday (April 24) around the center of the city

IDF:

IDF forces uncovered a Hezbollah terrorist weapons cache in southern Lebanon, including anti-tank missiles intended for attacks on troops and civilians.

Additional operations exposed tunnels, explosives, and weapons, while IDF units continue targeting terrorist infrastructure in Bent Jbeil.

Hezbollah terrorists also violated the ceasefire, launching explosive drones at IDF forces. No injuries reported.
