Jerusalem, 2026 (TPS-IL) -- In recent months, the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) eliminated ten Hezbollah terrorists in nine different villages in the South Lebanon area. The IDF said this is Hezbollah’s modus operandi: taking over and exploiting civilian space in southern Lebanon for terrorist purposes
The terrorists who were eliminated served as the operational arm of the terrorist organization in the villages of southern Lebanon, said the IDF.
As part of their role, the terrorists deliberately operated from within and through the civilian population in the areas of rehabilitation, education, welfare, and infrastructure, which was exploited to promote terrorist activity.
In the meantime, they took control of civilian space and private property, promoted the transfer of weapons and operatives, and embedded terrorist infrastructures in the heart of the civilian population, while cynically and systematically exploiting the residents of the villages to advance the terrorist goals of the terrorist organization Hezbollah.
