The Lebanese army deployed an excavator to dig at a site in Wadi al-Jouz, Toulin in Marjayoun District, southern Lebanon, between 12:16 p.m. and 1:17 p.m. UTC on December 17, following a request from the ceasefire monitoring mechanism alleging a resistance facility or tunnel, according to reports from Shihab Radar News citing Telegram channel Mehwar Al-Mokawama. Shihab Radar News correspondents reported that the army brought a bulldozer to the location after the "mechanism" demanded an inspection under the pretext of a resistance tunnel, as stated in multiple posts shared on Telegram during the reporting window. The developments occurred amid ongoing Israel-Lebanon ceasefire inspections, with the army actively excavating the disputed site as confirmed by on-the-ground reporting from the news outlet.
