The Israeli Defence Forces released footage on Tuesday revealing alleged Hezbollah hideouts within firing range of northern settlements.

Footage shows glimpses into the field operations in southern Lebanon, with Israeli troops and tanks pushing forward into new territories. While scouting an olive grove, one commander points to a loaded launcher and a hiding position dug into the ground to shield fighters from incoming attacks.

Troops can also be seen entering what the IDF claims to be a Hezbollah hideout in a civilian building. Footage shows explosives and launchers as well as ammunition boxes. The agency cannot independently verify the location of filming.

The Israeli military confirmed a fourth division had joined the eight-day-old ground incursion into Lebanon, which has expanded westwards.

Tens of thousands of displaced Israelis have been evacuated from the north because of cross-border hostilities with Hezbollah that have escalated since the outbreak of 2023 Gaza war.

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israeli forces had 'taken out' the would-be successors of late Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Earlier, Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said that top Hezbollah official Hasam Safieddine, who was expected to replace Nasrallah, had been killed.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah deputy secretary general Naim Qassem said that the militant group had recovered from the 'painful blows' it had suffered recently and that 'replacements' had been secured 'without exceptions'.

Israel began a 'limited and targeted' ground incursion against Hezbollah in Lebanon last week, after a campaign of airstrikes forced thousands to flee their homes in the south of the country.

According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, over 2,000 people have been killed since the latest escalation. Tensions were heightened following mass casualties after pagers and handheld radios used by Hezbollah exploded last month, which the group blamed on Israel - although the country did not comment.
