In recent days, the IDF has increased military pressure on dozens of Hezbollah terrorists trapped in the strategic tunnels on the Ali Taher ridge in southern Lebanon. The operation is being carried out by fighters from the Commando Brigade and the 7th Brigade, operating under Division 36. According to reports, a green light was received from the US for a significant Israeli operation in the tunnel area, and Lebanese media report a night of intense fighting there. The tunnels, known as 'refuge cities,' were built by Iran for Hezbollah's 'Badr' forces and were intended for defensive and offensive maneuvers against Israel, but in recent months they have become a trap for the terrorists. The IDF holds the area and prevents the dozens of terrorists from leaving the tunnels, and also prevents Hezbollah from transferring supplies to the tunnels. In Lebanon and the defense establishment, assessments are that it is a matter of days until the terrorists leave the tunnels, whether with the intention of surrendering or trying to fight the forces. The IDF assessed that dozens of terrorists are trapped in the 'refuge city,' the code name for the strategic tunnels on the Ali Taher ridge and in Beaufort. In Lebanon, it was assessed that the number has decreased significantly following IDF activity in the area in recent weeks. The terrorists are completely cut off from the outside world, and they are required to decide in the coming hours and days whether to surrender, continue to stay in the tunnels until their death, or come out and fight.
