WATCH the moment Israeli special forces say they raided a Hezbollah terror compound packed with missiles, rocket launchers, and explosives.

Footage shows the troops walking through bush and investigating a cave compound dug into rock.

Inside they find artillery shells, guns, and even surface-to-air missiles in a box.

In a statement, the IDF said: “Hezbollah intended to use this compound to plan and execute an infilitration into Israeli territory and attacks on IDF troops.

“Within the compound, the soldiers located underground infrastructure and hideouts equipped with logistical and medical supplies for prolonged stays, military tents, and pits stocked with weapons.

“The troops also located and destroyed rocket launchers, high-powered explosives ready to be activated, anti-tank missiles, mortar shells, AK-47 rifles, surface-to-air missiles, and a launcher concealed in a mountain on a several-meter track aimed directly at civilian communities in northern Israel.”

Israel is invading Lebanon as it claims it is seeking to remove Hezbollah from near the southern border.

Troops have found a number of terror tunnels in the south of the country they say Hezbollah was using as staging points.

Inside the tunnels IDF soldiers find weapons, clothing, and food so the fighters can live there for months.

Footage of the raid comes after Israel has continued to wipe out the leaders of the terror groups it battles.

Another clip was released Saturday of soldiers capturing a top Hezbollah terror commander inside Lebanon and escaping in speedboats.

IDF naval commandos captured the official in a daring rain in the north of the country as fighting rages in the south.

Imad Amhaz was considered by the IDF to be a “significant source of knowledge” in the terror group’s naval force.

Ali Hamie, Lebanon’s Minister of Public Works and Transport, claimed that Amhaz was only a captain of civilian ships.

Black and white CCTV footage released by the IDF appeared to show its troops moving Amhaz through a parking lot as they kidnapped him and brought him to Israel.

The Israeli military also said on Saturday it had killed a commander of Hezbollah’s Nasser Brigade rocket unit in southern Lebanon, and that he had been responsible for several attacks on Israel.

The kidnapping clip comes just a day after the IDF released footage of it killing a Hamas leader as he was driving through Gaza.

Izz al-Din Kassab was killed along with another Hamas official named Ayman Ayesh in an Israeli strike on their car in Khan Younis.

Hezbollah names new leader

Last week, Hezbollah named its new boss as Naim Qassem – an ageing terrorist who gave a chilling speech this month vowing to fight on.

Qassem, the former deputy leader, is replacing Hassan Nasrallah – who was killed by Israel last month in massive airstrikes on Beirut.

His accession to the top of Hezbollah will make him the chief target for Israeli assassins, who have already killed dozens of terror chiefs in Lebanon and Gaza.

He takes the reins as Hezbollah defends against an Israeli invasion in the south of Lebanon.

When Qassem was appointed, Israel’s Defence Minister Yoav Gollant said: “The appointment is temporary. The countdown has begun.”
