The Israeli military destroyed Hezbollah's largest precision-guided missile manufacturing site, while a lawmaker vowed that the terrorist group would "fight and resist" any attacks on Lebanon.

On the third day of the ceasefire agreement, the Israel Defense Forces made an announcement. During the first phase of the 60-day deal, Hezbollah and Israeli forces will withdraw from south Lebanon, and the Lebanese military will take control.

Earlier this week, the IDF announced that its fighter jets had destroyed Hezbollah's largest precision-guided missile manufacturing site, which is 1.4km wide and 70m underground.

This site near the Syria-Lebanon border was used to manufacture precision-guided missiles and surface-to-surface missiles, which were part of Hezbollah's lethal arsenal.

Hezbollah lawmaker Hassan Fadlallah stated on Thursday that the group will collaborate with the army to enforce the ceasefire, as reported by The Associated Press. However, he emphasized that the military lacks the ability to safeguard Lebanon against Israel, a responsibility that Hezbollah has traditionally assumed. As a result, the group intends to maintain its role in this area.

"If Israel attacks, we will fight and resist. This is our right."

Despite the ongoing financial crisis in Lebanon since 2019, the country aims to recruit and deploy an additional 10,000 troops south of the Litani River.

Despite the international community's pledge of $1 billion dollars for Lebanon at a donor conference in Paris last month, including $800 million for humanitarian assistance and $200 million to support the army, aid groups report that none of that funding has been received yet.

On Friday, the IDF is advising Lebanese citizens to avoid a border area where Israeli troops remain following the October ground operation.

Avichay Adraee, the IDF Arabic spokesperson, stated on X that the IDF does not intend to target you and therefore you are prohibited from returning to your homes in the zone south of the Israel-Lebanon border until further notice. He posted a map of the area on his social media account.

"Moving south of this line puts you in danger," he stated.
