Among the items found were anti-tank rockets, mortar shells, grenades, launchers, light firearms, and explosives. In a shocking revelation, these weapons were found alongside UNHCR markings, further complicating the situation and raising concerns over the misuse of humanitarian spaces for military purposes.

The discovery of Hezbollah's military presence near a school is not an isolated incident. The IDF also reported the identification of active Hezbollah infrastructure located within the vicinity of a church in the same region.
This military activity, hidden within civilian structures, is part of Hezbollah's ongoing efforts to embed itself within densely populated areas, making it more difficult for Israeli forces to neutralise the threat without risking civilian lives.
"IDF troops located active Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure within the vicinity of a church in the area of Al-Khiyam," stated the IDF. The forces also discovered three additional shafts that Hezbollah had built during a ceasefire, indicating that the group had resumed its military activity during periods of relative calm.
