Dozens of Hezbollah terrorists trapped in tunnel complex; supplies expected to run out within days—report

Dozens of Hezbollah terrorists are reportedly trapped in an extensive tunnel complex on Southern Lebanon's Ali al-Taher Ridge, with Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers blocking their exits. Channel 12 News reported on Monday that approximately 40 operatives are running low on supplies, leading the IDF to anticipate a potential surprise attack. The complex, which served as a command-and-control center and housed weapons, has been a key point of friction and a challenging area for Israeli ground operations. The Israeli Air Force previously struck the deep underground complex but could not destroy it.

• Rubio affirmed U.S. commitment to the deal and "Lebanon's efforts to deliver security, peace and a better future for the Lebanese people."
• Aoun, who is also scheduled to meet President Trump, stated Beirut's position should align with the U.S. approach, starting with an Israeli withdrawal from the first "pilot zone."
