IDF: Weapons Caches and Operational Apartment Found Near UN Posts in Southern Lebanon

In depth

Forces from the IDF's 91st Division located two weapons caches in the village of Meis al-Jabal, one in a civilian house and one in a storehouse, about 100 to 200 meters from a UN post. Among the findings were rockets, RPG launchers, Kalashnikov rifles, grenades and explosive charges. Inside the buildings, aid crates and signs of Hezbollah and Amal were also found.

In the village of A-Tiri, Kfir Brigade forces located an operational Hezbollah apartment about 250 meters from a UN post. Combat equipment and observation equipment were seized in the apartment.

The IDF stated that the findings indicate the failure of the UNIFIL force in its mission, and the exploitation by terrorist organizations of their proximity to UN posts.
