The town holds a symbolic position within Hezbollah's organization as it was the location where the then-secretary general Hassan Nasrallah described Israel as weaker than a spider web.
The soldiers, operating under the military's 98th Division, identified terrorists who opened fire at IDF soldiers from hospital windows. The military killed an unspecified number of the terrorists operating within the hospital, as well as approximately 20 additional terrorists operating in the vicinity, the military stated.
The soldiers found a Hezbollah weapons cache located within the hospital after raiding the building following a firefight.
"Hezbollah systemically and continuously used the hospital complex and its immediate surroundings for the terror organization's military needs, in severe violation of international law," the military said.
