This screen grab taken from a video shared by Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz on X on September 10, 2026 shows the moment of an explosion that Israel says destroyed key underground infrastructure built by the Iran-backed Hezbollah group on the strategic Ali al-Taher ridge in south Lebanon. Israel said September 10 it demolished key tunnels built by the Iran-backed Hezbollah group beneath the strategic Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon. "This is strategic terrorist infrastructure that was built over two decades, with Iranian funding and planning," said a joint statement by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Israel Katz, adding that its destruction "completes the achievement of operational control over the Ali al-Taher ridge -- above and below ground".
