00:00I'm standing right now in southern Lebanon, near the border with Israel.

00:03We came through an area where the Israelis had punched through the cement border wall.

00:18Right now, if you look behind me over there, you can see a UN installation.

00:23This is where international peacekeepers are meant to stay and prevent Hezbollah from arming in this area.

00:29Right next to me, however, is a very, very deep tunnel dug into rock.

00:35It's connected to a lot of other tunnel shafts around this whole forested area

00:40where the Israeli military says they found weapons, communications equipment, cameras and sensors.

00:45And these tunnels are meant to protect the Hezbollah fighters from Israel's air force.

00:50So they can stay inside these tunnels. There's water inside of them, medical equipment.

00:54Some of them have internet inside of them as well.

00:56They can stay inside these tunnels, be protected from Israel's air force,

01:00and they can mount attacks on Israeli communities,

01:02which, if we look over there, are right down on the other side of this mountain.

01:27I'm now standing in the forest in Lebanon, near the village of Lubuna,

01:31where the Israeli military says they found a Hezbollah position.

01:35They said they found 700 positions just like this.

01:38These are areas where Hezbollah can hide their equipment.

01:42You see battle fatigues, boots, some things for keeping electricity.

01:49The military says that mine could have been used to breach Israel's border wall not too far from here,

01:55and that the Hezbollah fighters would come to this position,

01:58grab these vests, this equipment, and rush towards the border as part of some kind of invasion plan.

02:06Hezbollah has claimed that it hasn't been using the villages in the area as military outposts.

02:14But it's not clear what they said yet about creating these military sites inside the forces.

02:20But the Israelis said these weren't defensive positions, but really these are offensive positions.
