🇮🇱🇱🇧 WHY WAS HEZBOLLAH’S HQ BUILT UNDER RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS?
Hezbollah built its HQ beneath residential buildings and near a UN-run school in Beirut as part of a strategy to deter Israeli airstrikes.
This positioning took advantage of the 1996 April Understanding, a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon.
The deal prohibited both sides from attacking civilian targets, attempting to protect populated areas.
By embedding military infrastructure in civilian zones, Hezbollah aims to minimize the risk of Israeli retaliation while continuing its operations.
Key Hezbollah leaders, including Nasrallah, operated from underground bunkers buried hundreds of feet below homes and schools throughout Lebanon.
