IDF troops in Beit Hanoun, northern Gaza Strip, dismantled approximately 5 km of underground terror tunnel routes and uncovered weapons stockpiles including explosives, RPGs, rifles, and surveillance equipment using specialized drilling rigs, as stated by Lt. Col. Avital Shoshani on X during the reporting window from 7:46:03 PM to 8:15:41 PM UTC on February 26, 2026. The operation targeted tunnel infrastructure beneath the surface, with troops employing drilling rigs to locate and neutralize the routes, according to the IDF post shared in the 29-minute window. This follows earlier IDF reports today of eliminating terrorists in the Yellow Line area of northern Gaza Strip by the Iron Fist Brigade Combat Team (205) and Israeli Air Force strikes. Separate commentary from Joe Truzman on X during the window described today's Israeli airstrikes on Hezbollah Radwan Force infrastructure in Lebanon's Beqaa Valley as successful, noting secondary explosions indicating arms depots were hit, building on IDF footage published earlier on February 26 confirming strikes on eight such camps near Baalbek.
