IDF clears Hezbollah tunnels on Ali al-Taher ridge in Lebanon

Israeli forces cleared Hezbollah tunnel networks on the Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon, part of continued ground operations in the roughly 20 percent of Lebanese territory Israel controls.

Why this matters. Continued Israeli tunnel-clearing operations show ground combat persisting despite the nominal April ceasefire, complicating any near-term Israeli withdrawal tied to Hezbollah disarmament.
