Hezbollah Bunkers Next To UN Positions

The IDF located and destroyed an elaborate defensive bunker built by Hezbollah. It was almost next to a UN post. Who exactly was UNIFIL protecting?

Elian added that the bunker had "shooting positions of poured concrete," and that the combat posts inside were equipped with phone lines, showers, toilets, air ducts, and emergency exits, as well as logistical paraphernalia for Hizbullah.

A Golani officer told the Jerusalem Post that among the force's findings was a Katyusha rocket launcher, most likely used in rocket attacks against northern Israel during the war.

He also mentioned that Golani forces had initiated the move to uncover the bunker after the same battalion, in an earlier operation, had discovered maps specifying certain areas where Hizbullah had planned such tunnels in south Lebanon.

This structure was within a half a kilometer of the UN post. Something this elaborate took time to build. Either the UN force was hopelessly inept or willfully blind to the activities going on right under their noses.
