This article can be challenged with Haaretz (English)'s editorial-standards team.

Amend the article to add explicit verification caveats to each factual claim originating solely with the IDF, including the characterisation of occupants as "Hezbollah fighters" and the description of facilities as "large underground command-and-control centers," making clear in each case that these are the IDF's unverified assertions.
Amend the article to incorporate, or to acknowledge the absence of, perspectives from Lebanese authorities, Hezbollah, Iranian officials, or independent monitors, in keeping with Haaretz's stated commitment to balanced reporting.
