— Israeli army prepares for Hezbollah response in the north after clearing tunnels in southern Lebanon
The Israeli army says it has cleared two underground tunnels belonging to Hezbollah in the Ali Taher heights, which it now controls operationally above and below ground. Hezbollah responded last night by launching a drone, with no official response yet. Israel estimates a response could come via drones, anti-tank missiles, or rockets targeting its forces and northern towns. The tunnels contained command centers, weapons depots, generator rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and living quarters, built over two decades with Iranian funding and planning. Reuters reports that Tehran warned the US via Oman that a major Israeli attack on the heights could draw a wide Iranian response.@TPOnow
