The Lebanese Army conducted at the request of the International Ceasefire Monitoring Committee (known as "the mechanism") an inspection at the so-called al-Kazem project site, located behind the Imam al-Sadiq School in Mreijeh, in Beirut’s southern suburb on late Sunday afternoon.
A military unit cordoned off the area, preventing any access while the inspection was underway, as Israeli drones flew over the neighborhood at low altitude.
According to security sources cited by Houna Loubnan, the Army focused in particular on the ruins of a building that had been destroyed in Thursday’s Israeli airstrikes on the southern suburbs. The same building had reportedly been inspected that day as well, the sources added.
The military unit immediately launched a digging operation under the rubble of the destroyed building, in search of a possible militia-related structure.
It carried out a thorough inspection, digging as deep as 9 meters without finding anything, while the International Monitoring Committee had initially requested an 8-meter excavation.
