Video: Israel destroys Hezbollah tunnel network in Lebanon

Israel said it struck dozens of Hezbollah targets in the Nabatieh area and its navy also struck dozens of targets in southern Lebanon.

They said they had destroyed a tunnel network used by Hezbollah's elite Radwan Force in the centre of the town of Mhaibeb near the border with Israel, and released a video showing multiple explosions shaking buildings.

Hezbollah has spent years building a network of tunnels that Israel estimates stretch hundreds of kilometers.

Hezbollah’s arsenal and tunnels have expanded since the 2006 war, especially precision-guided systems. Hezbollah officials say the group has used only a small portion of its arsenal in the fighting over the past year.

Israeli officials say Hezbollah’s military infrastructure is tightly linked to villages and communities in southern Lebanon, with ammunition and rocket launchers stored in homes across the region. Israel has been attacking some of those villages for months to degrade Hezbollah’s capabilities.

Confirmed details about the tunnel network remain scarce. Israel has struggled to purge Hamas commanders and militia units from tunnels that crisscross Gaza.

“This is one of our biggest challenges in Gaza, and certainly something we can solve in Lebanon,” said Carmit Valensi, a senior fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv.

But unlike Gaza, where most tunnels are hand-dug into sandy soil, the tunnels in Lebanon are dug deep into rocky terrain, according to Krieg. "They are much harder to access than in Gaza and even harder to destroy."
