RPG and anti-tank missile launchers were found in the bedroom of a civilian home in the village of Tallousa in southern Lebanon.

During operations in Tallousa, which the IDF described as a Hezbollah stronghold, soldiers also found RPG ammunition, anti-tank missiles, vests, helmets, and flags belonging to Hezbollah. The IDF's 401st Brigade had previously reported killing over 20 Hezbollah terrorists and destroying more than 90 terror infrastructure sites in the village as part of its efforts to neutralize threats.

The discovery in Tallousa is part of ongoing IDF operations in southern Lebanon aimed at dismantling Hezbollah's military capabilities. The military noted that such operations are continuing in the region.

The IDF 401st Brigade killed over 20 Hezbollah terrorists and destroyed over 90 terror infrastructure sites during its operations in the village, which the military described as a Hezbollah hub.

This incident follows a similar announcement on Monday, where the IDF reported uncovering over 150 weapons in the southern Lebanese village of Hadatha over the past month. Those findings included RPG rockets, anti-tank missiles, machine guns, and Kalashnikov rifles.

The Hezbollah terrorist organization, funded and directed by Iran, spent decades constructing underground tunnels throughout the area to threaten northern Israeli communities.

IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir recently visited soldiers at the Beaufort Ridge in southern Lebanon. He described Hezbollah as "exhausted" and "relying on its Iranian patron to save it," asserting that Israeli military achievements had weakened the group. Zamir also stated that the Beaufort area was "saturated with terrorist infrastructure" that Hezbollah had spent decades constructing, including underground tunnels, but that Israeli troops now have operational control.

“

Now, our troops have operational control of this key terrain both above ground and of these underground tunnel networks.
