On the Hezbollah front, the IDF now publicly revealed that Hezbollah is keeping its finances as well as a former bunker of Nasrallah, under a hospital in Beirut's Dahiyah neighborhood (Hezbollah stronghold).
Instead of striking it, the IDF's spokesperson in Arabic Avichai Adraee provided extra details on how to enter the facility and reach the money. Approximately $500 million are located there.
Hezbollah pays its members in US dollars, raising the chances someone will take upon themselves the task to loot it.
Lebanon's population is far more sympathetic to Israel than the population of Gaza or J&S could ever be, so it's preferable that civilians get the area cleared so infrastructure remains intact. However in a general outlook on Dahiyeh, its status could be a dilemma for the IDF.
On one hand, its destruction could ensure Hezbollah's infrastructure is truly removed and Hezbollah has nowhere to return in Beirut.
On the other hand, the crisis in Lebanon may also manifest as a housing crisis and so maintaining Dahiyeh somewhat intact could further Israel in the aspect of hearts and minds, which is ultimately quite important for a "day after" strategy in Lebanon.

Is this the same hospital mentioned in Raiguy's 10:30 PM post? I don't know anything about the credence of his source but your source gives his more.

Do you really think that Hezbollah would give the media a guided tour directly to where they conduct illegal operations? In the first 30 seconds of that video the journalist admits that their access is being limited.

Exactly. Additionally, is Hezbollah going store the money IN the part of the hospital that is functioning as a hospital? Should we expect to walk into the ICU and see a room full of cash? Come on....

The journalist literally stated that they were not limited in where they could film.

Right, but they also never left the operational portion of the hospital, at least not on the video provided. I wouldn't expect hundreds of millions of dollars to be kept in the storage room next to the boxes of IVs.

I suspect there's an area, outside of the actual hospital, that is hidden and/or leads to the location of the money.

Or it's just another fabricated lie by Israel to attack yet another hospital. They always make accusations but never share a shred of real evidence.

He said they were on a guided tour and were not limited on what they could film in the spots that they were led to. They were not given permission to freely go on their own all over the hospital.

LOL, that video? The one where he points to a calendar and claims it lists the shifts of the "Khamas terrorists"...but maybe Hamas is using a secret code and the names of the members are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc... :ROFLMAO:

I guess these videos work on some people

The topic was Hamas tunnels specifically located under civilian buildings, like hospitals. Is there any doubt that Hamas has tunnels under hospitals, given that we have video of Hamas tunnels under a hospital?

Israel isn't perfect, but taking the word of terrorists because of a few mistakes by Israel is like MAGA turning to Gateway Pundit because of a few mistakes by MSM. It's a losing proposition.

Israel's intelligence has been largely spot-on during this war. Their intelligence is the reason that they have been able to essentially destroy the leadership structures of Hamas and Hezbollah.

And I can assure you, the HUMINT and SIGINT in Iran are deep, extensive and timely.

Esmaeil Khatib knows it.
Hossein Salami knows it.
Ghomareza Soleimani knows it.
Aziz Nashirzadh knows it.

Except for completely missing the O7 attack, but other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln.

Also, for an intelligence agency that supposedly knows where everyone is, there's sure a lot of collateral damage.

Yup, missing 10/7 was an absolute blunder. They have done their best to make up for it since, but once the war is over an investigation into how the warning signs were missed needs to be completed and those responsible need to be punished.

There is a lot of collateral damage because that's exactly how Hamas operates and what it wanted to happen, unfortunately. Palestinian civilians don't seem to mean a lot to either side here.
