IDF Destroys Hezbollah Underground Network in South Lebanon | JP

Zamir detailed that in recent weeks the IDF conducted extensive military operations in the sector, led by Northern Command under Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin, Division 36 and the combat brigades. “The mission I assigned to the forces was clear: destroy the infrastructure in the Ali Taher ridge by Rosh Hashanah eve, and redeploy in the area,” he stated.

The chief of staff expressed special appreciation for the Commando Brigade and the Egoz, Maglan and Yahalom units. “The Commando Brigade fully realized its purpose as a brigade for special missions. Together with them operated forces from the Golani Brigade, the 7th Brigade and additional forces who operated on the forward front line on the ridge and in the underground depths,” he noted.

“We also remember those who fell and were wounded while fighting to achieve our objectives. This achievement is primarily theirs,” Zamir said. “With the entry of the new year, the entire IDF stands guard over our country, from the chief of staff to the last soldier, in the front-line posts, in headquarters and in command centers. May this be a year of strengthening our security, a year of victory on all fronts. It is a great privilege for us to be the defenders of the people and the land.”
