Lebanese Report: IDF Used Toxic Gas to Neutralize Hezbollah Operatives

A Lebanese report claims the Israeli military destroyed a facility containing Hezbollah operatives in the Ali Taher area by using toxic gas. According to the report, the IDF pumped poisonous gases into the structure, forcing the trapped militants to use ventilation shafts to escape suffocation. This action allegedly allowed Israel to identify the locations of these shafts and tunnel entrances, enabling the deployment of robots.

The IDF announced it has completed clearing Hezbollah's underground infrastructure in the Ali Taher ridge and is working to neutralize it. Hezbollah has not commented on the fate of the operatives, leaving it unclear if they escaped or were killed within the tunnels.

Sources close to Hezbollah told the "Beirut Times" that the organization was preparing to detonate its entire network of facilities in the area in anticipation of an Israeli takeover. In such a scenario, the terror group would reportedly destroy the tunnel network, along with any individuals inside, and any missiles or military equipment stored there.
