USCENTCOM chief praises Lebanese Army for discovering Hezbollah tunnel

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) Commander Adm. Brad Cooper congratulated the Lebanese Armed Forces for what he described as the discovery of a "massive underground Hezbollah tunnel," the second such find in the past two months.

In a statement, Cooper said the tunnels were being used by "non-state actors" to store ammunition, missiles, and attack drones, adding that dismantling them helps promote peace and stability in Lebanon and across the region.

He also praised the work of a U.S.-led "mechanism team," saying it is helping enforce commitments made by Israel and Lebanon.
