For the first time since the IDF’s withdrawal from Lebanon, an artillery battery was deployed overnight into Sunday morning for combat operations in southern Lebanon, significantly increasing the range of artillery fire into Lebanese territory.
Following the advancement of IDF troops to additional targets in Lebanon and engagements with Hezbollah’s second line of defense, Division 36 decided to move a heavy artillery battery into Lebanese territory.
The regular battery, composed of male and female soldiers, is conducting heavy artillery strikes deep into the area, providing operational support for any scenarios encountered by maneuvering forces.
