The IDF on Thursday released footage secondary blasts seen on buildings in southern Lebanon which it says was used by Hezbollah to store weapons hidden inside civilian homes . Over the past week, the IDF has conducted precise, intelligence-based strikes on multiple Hezbollah targets in Lebanon in order to remove immediate threats.

"Secondary Explosions = Stored Munitions It's basic. Secondary explosions occur because we are precisely targeting the munitions of Hezbollah that are aimed at killing our civilians," the IDF said in a social media post along with a footage explaining it.


In a video released by the IDF, a site is shown where Israeli forces targeted Hezbollah positions, resulting in a secondary explosion, which the IDF attributes to hidden explosives stored at the location.



"The civilians are forced to live amongst explosives and are used as human shields. Instead of using their military assets to protect the people of Lebanon, Hezbollah uses the people of Lebanon to protect their military assets," the video said.

Recently, the IDF released similar footages showing how Hezbollah militants are allegedly using civilian homes in Lebanon as weapons storage facilities, and employing Lebanese civilians as human shields to shield their military operations.

In a video statement, IDF chief Daniel Hagari explained that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) issued warnings to residents in specific areas of southern Lebanon, urging them to evacuate to minimize civilian harm, as Hezbollah had established a heavy military presence within their villages.

The IDF also released images of Hezbollah's arsenal, including a long-range rocket housed in a civilian residence, which was aimed at Israeli cities and ready for launch. According to the IDF, this rocket was just one of 1,300 targets, including cruise missiles, heavy rockets, and UAVs, that were struck during the offensive. These weapons were intended to cause widespread destruction in Israel, the IDF stated.
