Israel: Hezbollah Accused of Launching Explosive Drone at Military Vehicle Near Ali Taher Ridge
No injuries were reported as the military said the drone attack violated the ceasefire and targeted an Israeli engineering vehicle.
- On Wednesday, July 29, 2026, the IDF reported uncovering a Hezbollah weapons cache and tunnel in southern Lebanon, accusing the militant group of a "blatant violation of the ceasefire" after an explosive drone struck an IDF engineering vehicle.
- These operations occur amid a U.S. agreement signed last month requiring the Lebanese army to disarm Hezbollah and the Israeli military to withdraw from "pilot zones" where Lebanese forces are to deploy.
- Nearby troops located a 55-meter underground tunnel containing three rooms, positioned about 300 meters from a UNIFIL building, alongside weapons including Kalashnikovs and RPGs that the military announced finding on Wednesday.
- Lebanon's army condemned ongoing Israeli activities on Sunday, July 26, stating these actions prevent its full deployment under the framework deal, while the IDF maintains it will "continue to operate in the ridge area" to prevent attacks.
- In a separate incident located about 10 kilometers north of Rosh Hanikra, troops fired at a suspect "that approached the forces in a threatening manner" after the individual ignored calls to stop.
