The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Friday that while operating in southern Lebanon, they uncovered a truck with 40 rocket launcher barrels in the Naqoura area. The operation, led by the 226th Brigade of the 146th Division, revealed weapons and infrastructure allegedly used by Hezbollah to target Israel.

The troops also discovered explosives, RPGs, AK-47 rifles, and "Burkan" missiles concealed inside civilian structures, including a pharmacy. Mortars and additional launchers aimed at Israel were also located and neutralized.

The IDF said the findings showed the use of civilian areas for storing military equipment, which violates ceasefire agreements. All confiscated materials were destroyed.
