IDF: troops Eliminated a Terrorist Cell and Dismantled a Hezbollah Anti-Tank Command Center in the Bint Jbeil Area in Southern Lebanon
Troops of the IDF 91st Division continue targeted ground operations in southern Lebanon in order to enhance the forward defensive posture and protect the civilians of northern Israel.

Earlier this week, a command center used by Hezbollah’s anti-tank unit in the Bint Jbeil area of southern Lebanon was struck, along with an additional command center where a cell of five terrorists from the anti-tank unit in southern Lebanon was eliminated.
Yesterday (Monday), the Israeli Air Force, struck additional Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure, including another anti-tank position that the Hezbollah terrorist organization had planned to use to target IDF troops in the area.
The IDF is operating decisively against the Hezbollah terrorist organization in response to its deliberate decision to attack Israel on behalf of the Iranian terror regime. The IDF acts to remove threats to the civilians of the State of Israel.

IDF: Dismantling launchers, eliminating terrorists, and structured strikes on production sites – the Israeli Air Force has carried out over 600 combat sorties against the Iranian terror regime’s ballistic missile array.
The ballistic missile troops of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps are weakened, according to IDF intelligence assessments.
Since the beginning of Operation ‘Roaring Lion,’ the IAF, the Operations Directorate, and IDF intelligence have been leading a sustained effort to target components of the Iranian terror regime’s ballistic missile program, aiming to reduce the threat to Israel’s Home Front.
In the past week, following cross-referencing of multiple intelligence sources—including sources inside Iran—IDF intelligence has observed low morale and fatigue among personnel of the Revolutionary Guards’ ballistic missile units due to IDF strikes.
Israeli Air Force UAVs and aircraft continue to operate continuously to detect launchers and strike them in real time while some are loaded and ready for launch.
The severe impact on the ballistic missile array constitutes a central component of the structured effort to target and undermine the Iranian terror regime.

IDF:As part of the wave of strikes in Isfahan: the IDF struck Iran’s most central explosives production facility
The Israeli Air Force struck dozens of targets in Iran today
Today (Tuesday), the Israeli Air Force, acting on IDF intelligence, completed a wide-scale wave of strikes, targeting the Iranian regime’s military-industrial production facilities in Isfahan.

This site had previously been targeted during Operation Rising Lion. In recent months, activity by the Iranian regime to restore its capabilities at the site was identified.
Moreover, today (Tuesday), the Israeli Air Force, acting on IDF intelligence, struck dozens of Iranian regime targets using more than 120 munitions, including ballistic missile launching sites, weapons production sites, and air defense systems.
The IDF continues to deepen the damage to the Iranian regime’s military industries in order to degrade the production capabilities it has built over several years.

IDF: The IDF completed another wave of strikes across Lebanon targeting fuel stations that fund the activities of the Hezbollah terrorist organization
Over the past day, the IDF completed an additional wave of strikes across Lebanon targeting fuel stations belonging to the company Al-Amana, which is controlled by the Hezbollah terrorist organization and serves as significant financial infrastructure supporting its terrorist activities.
As part of the strikes, fuel stations in various areas of Lebanon were targeted and rendered inoperable. These stations are used by Hezbollah to refuel trucks transporting weapons and operatives.
The fuel stations generate millions of dollars in revenue for Hezbollah, fund its operations, and serve as another example of Hezbollah’s exploitation of Lebanese civilians while operating under civilian cover to advance terrorist activities.
The targeting of these fuel stations significantly damages Hezbollah’s infrastructure in Lebanon, limits the capabilities of its terrorists to plan attacks, and continues the disruption of assets belonging to the Al-Qard al-Hasan association in Beirut, as part of the terrorist organization’s economic entrenchment within the civilian population.
The IDF is operating decisively against the Hezbollah terrorist organization in response to its deliberate decision to attack Israel on behalf of the Iranian terror regime. The IDF acts to remove threats to the civilians of the State of Israel.
