For the first time, IDF forces from the Chashmonaim Brigade are operating in southern Lebanon.

The brigade, under the Bar’am Division (300), has been carrying out targeted raids in recent weeks as part of Israel’s forward defense efforts.

The fighters previously took part in operations in Syria, Yehuda and Shomron, and Gaza, and are now active in Lebanon for the first time.

At the same time, the brigade has launched its first internal officers’ training course at its training base, marking a major milestone.

The brigade commander said the Chashmonaim Brigade will continue to operate with mesirus nefesh in every arena while maintaining the chareidi way of life of its soldiers.
