Third Hezbollah Attack Tunnel Found By IDF, UNIFIL Head Meets With Lebanese President

(TPS) The IDF confirmed this week that it had found a third Hezbollah attack tunnel infiltrating into Israel from Lebanon.

This comes as Operation Northern Shield, which aims to find and destroy Hezbollah attack tunnels, enters its second week.

In a statement, the IDF said soldiers had placed explosives in the Hezbollah attack tunnel, which was exposed on Tuesday, warning Hezbollah terrorists to “enter at your own risk.”

“The Lebanese government is responsible for digging the tunnels from Lebanese territory. This is a serious violation of Resolution 1701 and the sovereignty of the State of Israel,” the IDF said, adding that the route of the tunnel is under IDF control and poses no threat.

“The route, like the rest of the tracks, is trapped by the IDF and anyone who enters it on its Lebanese side endangers their life,” it added.

Meanwhile, the UN Interim Force in Lebanon said it had confirmed the existence of a second tunnel close to the blue line, which separates Lebanon and Israel. UNIFIL said it “is continuing to follow up on this issue in close coordination with the Lebanese Armed Forces,” adding that it is a “serious matter.”
