Israeli defense officials believe dozens of Hezbollah operatives are trapped in a strategic underground complex in southern Lebanon. At the same time, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called for the group to be disarmed, saying Lebanon has no future as long as it remains armed.

The IDF says Northern Brigade troops, alongside the Yahalom engineering unit, dismantled roughly 14 km of Hamas tunnel infrastructure around Beit Hanoun in recent months.
