The new Israel-Lebanon agreement is starting off with a bang. As part of Operation “Full Stop,” the IDF has destroyed a major Hezbollah tunnel complex beneath the Shiite village of Majdal Zoun in southern Lebanon—one of Iran and Hezbollah’s most significant military assets in the country.
The shaft stretched more than 200 meters and descended over 25 meters underground. Inside were hundreds of weapons, workshops, and several launch tubes built to fire from within the bunker itself, all pointed at Israel.
This wasn’t a quiet demolition. Bringing the network down required hundreds of tons of explosives, and the Upper Galilee Regional Council warned residents in advance to expect a high-intensity blast whose echoes could roll across the entire sector, including the Hula Valley over 30 miles away.
The tunnel was only the heart of a much larger subterranean network. Over the past week, IDF forces captured the sprawling complex it served: a fully operational underground drone airbase built by Iran for Hezbollah beneath the village, roughly 10 kilometers from the Israeli border.
