(JNS) The IDF provided visual proof on Wednesday, March 20 that Hezbollah operates from within residential areas, showing footage of an airstrike on a weapons depot “in the heart of a civilian neighborhood deep in Lebanon.”

As can be seen in the video, the recent Israeli Air Force attack set off lengthy secondary explosions that constitute “further proof of Hezbollah’s method of operation in which it stores explosives and dangerous chemical substances in civilian villages.”

The IDF accused the Iranian terrorist proxy of deliberately placing its weapons production infrastructure in the middle of civilian areas in Southern Lebanon, the Beqaa Valley and Beirut.

Using human shields is a war crime and is a tactic used by the Hamas terrorist group in Gaza and by other jihadist organizations.

According to the IDF, “under the law of armed conflict, the presence of the civilian population cannot be used to render certain points immune from military operations, or to shield one’s own military operations.”
