🚨 BREAKING: IDF UNCOVERS HEZBOLLAH WEAPONS, STRIKES LAUNCH SITES IN SOUTHERN LEBANON
IDF forces continue operations along the forward defense line in southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah infrastructure and removing threats.
In recent days:
• Dozens of weapons located
• Explosives, Kalashnikovs, grenades, RPGs and combat gear seized
Earlier today:
• Division 98 struck surveillance equipment at a Hezbollah launch site near Kounine
• The position posed a direct threat to Israeli forces
Additional activity:
• Golani Brigade uncovered major weapons stockpiles
• Nahal Brigade located weapons, including an anti-tank missile, in the Rashaf area
At the same time:
• Hezbollah violated the ceasefire again
• Explosive drones launched toward IDF forces near Qantara
• Drones detonated near troops
• No injuries reported
This is ongoing enforcement, not a static ceasefire.

on Friday, as the Israel Defense Forces published footage showing six of the terror group’s button men being struck after exchanging fire with troops in the town of Bint Jbeil.
Meanwhile,
...back at the pie fight, Bella opened her mouth at precisely the wrong moment...
the Israeli military issued an evacuation order and carried out strikes in southern Lebanon in response to a rocket barrage that the Iran-backed terror group fired at Israel late Thursday.
The incidents came despite an ongoing ceasefire in Lebanon, which US President Donald Trump
...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US...
said Thursday night would be extended by three weeks, while noting that Israel could carry out strikes in Lebanon in self-defense.
The IDF has said that since the truce took effect on April 17, it has killed over 30 Hezbollah operatives who posed a threat to troops, and destroyed hundreds of the terror group’s sites. Hezbollah, meanwhile, has been carrying out multiple attacks per day on Israeli forces stationed in southern Lebanon amid the ceasefire, while claiming that it is responding to alleged Israeli violations of the truce.
Trump announced the ceasefire extension after hosting Israeli and Lebanese envoys for the second round of the two countries’ highest-level negotiations in decades. The sides in a joint statement agreed on the "urgent need" to revive a November 2024 ceasefire deal that required the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah.
On Friday morning, six Hezbollah button men were killed in the southern Lebanese town of Bint Jbeil, the military said.
Bint Jbeil is located in the Israeli-held security zone in southern Lebanon. The IDF assessed that, as the ceasefire took effect last week, several Hezbollah operatives remained holed up in the town after more than 100 were killed during the fighting there in recent weeks.
The military said that soldiers of the Paratroopers Brigade spotted fresh food and military equipment at the entrance to a building in Bint Jbeil’s "kasbah," or fortified quarter.
The paratroopers sent in a drone and a dog from the Oketz canine unit to scan the site before the soldiers entered. The dog revealed the position of the six button men before being rubbed out by them.
The soldiers then surrounded the building and identified the button men fleeing to the rooftop using the drone.
Within an hour and a half of the initial identification, all six button men were killed by troops with light arms, tank shelling and an explosive drone. The IDF said that at least two of the button men were killed by the paratroopers, with the other four killed in the strikes. No Israeli soldiers were hurt.
The incident was a "blatant violation of the ceasefire understandings by the Hezbollah terror organization," the IDF said.
Separately, the IDF said Friday morning that it struck buildings used by Hezbollah in the southern Lebanese towns of Khirbet Selm and Touline in response to the terror group’s late-night rocket barrage on the northern border community of Shtula.
The buildings were used by Hezbollah to advance attacks on troops and Israel, according to the military.
The IDF also ordered residents to evacuate a southern Lebanon town from which the attack on Shtula was launched.
"Hezbollah’s terror activities and the launching [of rockets] from the village force the IDF to act against it in your area of residence," army front man Col. Avichay Adraee warned residents of Deir Aames, which is located north of the Israeli buffer zone.
Adraee called on the residents to "immediately" evacuate their homes and move at least a kilometer from the village, which is located outside of the Israeli-held security zone in southern Lebanon.
The IDF later said it struck buildings in Deir Aames that Hezbollah used to launch the barrage on Shtula. Lebanese state media reported three Israeli strikes in the town. No casualties were reported.
On Friday afternoon, sirens sounded in several border communities in the Western Galilee, warning of a Hezbollah drone attack from Lebanon. The IDF said it shot the drone down before it crossed the border from Lebanon.
Elsewhere in southern Lebanon, Hezbollah launched several explosive-laden drones at Israeli troops stationed in the Israeli-held security zone.
The IDF said the drones struck near the forces, but no injuries were caused.
Another suspected drone was identified over an area of southern Lebanon where troops are stationed, according to the military. The IDF said it lost contact with that drone, indicating that the drone crashed.
"The Hezbollah terror organization once again blatantly violated the ceasefire agreement," the IDF said.
Hezbollah, in several statements, said it had targeted troops operating in the villages of Qantara and Ramyeh, located in the Israeli buffer zone.
The terror group has made use of small first-person view (FPV) drones in its attacks on Israeli troops. Some of the drones are guided using a spool of fiber optic cable, which mitigates efforts to electronically jam their signal. According to military officials, the FPV drones have ranges of up to 15 kilometers.
The Israeli military separately confirmed that one of its own drones was shot down by a Hezbollah anti-aircraft missile over Tyre in southern Lebanon on Friday afternoon. Footage published by Lebanese media showed the immediate aftermath of the interception.
"The incident is under investigation," the IDF said.
Hezbollah took responsibility for the incident, saying it shot down an Israeli Hermes 450 unmanned aerial vehicle.
Also on Friday, troops also struck surveillance equipment at a Hezbollah rocket-launching site in the southern Lebanon town of Kounine, the IDF said, adding that the equipment "posed a direct threat to the forces operating in the area."
In another incident, the IDF said it struck several Hezbollah rocket launchers in the southern Lebanon towns of Yater and Kafra, which are located north of the Israeli-held security zone.
The launchers "posed a threat to IDF troops and Israeli civilians," the military said.
Amid the Hezbollah attacks on troops and Israel, the mayor of Metula, Israel’s northernmost town, accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday of cowing to Trump’s ceasefire.
Some northern municipal leaders have expressed skepticism about the diplomacy and urged the government to wipe out Hezbollah, which has rained hundreds of rockets and drones a day on their region.
Writing on Facebook earlier Friday, Metula Mayor David Azulay said: "This morning we woke up to another day in our dismal reality."
"We got a message from President Trump about three more weeks of ceasefire. I didn’t know he’s the leader of the State of Israel," said Azulay, adding that Netanyahu was "trapped in (Trump’s) bear hug."
A separate statement from Azulay said the city had put up US flags in a jab at the government’s purported subservience to the White House. "It’s sad that the government of Israel and its head are losing our independence as an independent, sovereign and democratic state," the statement read.
Later Friday, breaking a nearly day-long silence on the ceasefire, Netanyahu said Israel was "maintaining full freedom of action against any threat" in Lebanon, and accused Hezbollah of seeking to "sabotage" peace talks between Israel and Lebanon.
"We struck yesterday and we struck today. We are determined to restore security to the residents of the north," he said.
Meanwhile,
...back at the pie fight, Bella opened her mouth at precisely the wrong moment...
Lebanese politician Mohammed Raad, head of Hezbollah’s parliamentary bloc, called on Beirut to "withdraw" from the direct talks with Israel..
"The authorities ought to feel ashamed before their people and withdraw from what has been called direct negotiations with the Zionist enemy," he said, adding that "any official contact or meeting bringing together the Lebanese and Israeli sides amid the ongoing war... will in no way enjoy Lebanese national consensus."
"Any so-called truce that grants the occupying enemy in Lebanon a special exemption to open fire... is not a truce at all, but rather a devious deception and an attempt to dupe others, one that entails covering up Israeli hostility and turning a blind eye to the enemy’s continued violations," Raad accused.
Israel has pushed troops deeper into Lebanon and carried out massive Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM! ...
s there after Hezbollah started firing rockets at Israel on March 2 for the first time since the November 2024 ceasefire agreement. That agreement ended over a year of conflict initiated by Hezbollah, during which Metula was largely evacuated and heavily damaged by rocket fire.
The terror group has said it renewed its attacks in response to both Israel’s continued attacks and presence in Lebanon since that agreement, and the killing of Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei
...the very aged actual dictator of Iran, successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini...>
, at the start of the US-Israeli bombing campaign in Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as StĂĽrmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or FĂĽhrer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
on February 28.
The ceasefire with Lebanon started on April 16 amid warnings from Iranian officials that failure to stop the fighting there could upend the Iran ceasefire that began on April 8.
Separately, on Friday, the IDF published footage that it said demonstrated Hezbollah’s use of ambulances for military purposes.
The footage showed weapons troops found inside ambulances bearing the logo of the Risala Scout Association, a paramedic group affiliated with the Hezbollah-allied Amal movement.
The IDF said Hezbollah "systematically and repeatedly uses medical facilities and equipment — particularly ambulances — to conceal terrorist activity," including by using "vehicles and medical teams as cover for transporting weapons and operatives, thereby undermining the special protections granted to medical facilities and equipment under international law."
During an incident this week, the IDF said, several armed Hezbollah operatives were killed in the Qantara area after violating the ceasefire terms and posing a threat to troops. During scans in the area following the incident, troops of the Golani Brigade located "an ambulance used by the Death Eaters to conceal weapons," including bombs, mortar shells, magazines and a grenade, the military said.
In another incident this month, troops of the 7th Armored Brigade killed an RPG-wielding Hezbollah operative near an ambulance. The IDF said, "Weapons were uncovered inside the ambulance, which had been used by the terrorist to establish himself in the area and carry out attacks from a ’protected’ position."
Additional footage released by the IDF showed what it said were Hezbollah operatives who survived Israeli strikes fleeing and hiding until an ambulance arrived to collect them.
According to the IDF, Hezbollah has "increased its use of ambulances to transport operatives between locations while disguising their identities," due to Israeli warnings to Lebanese civilians ahead of strikes, which make it "harder for Hezbollah operatives to blend in with non-combatants and move throughout the area."
UNIFIL SAYS 2ND PEACEKEEPER DIES OF WOUNDS FROM APPARENT ISRAELI STRIKE
An Indonesian peacekeeper died Friday from wounds sustained in an apparent Israeli strike on one of the observer force’s bases in southern Lebanon last month. Another Indonesian peacekeeper was killed during the incident.
"UNIFIL deplores the passing today of Corporal Rico Pramudia, who was critically injured following a projectile explosion in his base in Adchit Al Qusayr on the night of 29 March," UNIFIL said in a statement.
Pramudia, who was critically hurt, departed this vale of tears at a hospital in Beirut, the multinational force said.
A UN source told AFP on condition of anonymity that investigations had shown the fire came from an Israeli tank, adding that "debris from a tank round has been recovered" at the site.
The IDF has said it is investigating the incident.
