JERUSALEM – The IDF revealed the extensive spoils of its war with Hezbollah in Lebanon as it unveiled a massive display of the materiel it seized from the Iranian-backed proxy.
At an army base in Israel's north, the military laid out a large selection (but not all) of the 85,100 individual items captured from Hezbollah operatives, weapons caches, and tunnels. The haul included some 6,840 RPG rockets and anti-tank missiles, including 340 Russian-made Kornets, along with their launchers; 9,000 explosive devices and grenades; 2,250 unguided rockets and mortars; 2,700 assault rifles; 2,860 other guns including sniper rifles; and 60 anti-aircraft missiles.

Didn’t Assad tip off the Israeli’s where that stuff was?
For the whole Famn Damily.
Give them to Zelensky and the Kurds. Don’t let them go to waste.
I would urge the Israelis to be magnanimous here. Return the items to where they came from. Air mail.
These weapons were captured from Israel’s limited incursion across the northern border with Lebanon.
Assad reportedly tipped off Israel to weapons his Hezb allies were forced to abandon in Syria. Assad did not want them in the hands of HTS and allies in case he would mount a comeback with Iranians and Russians.
Also reported Russia tipped off Israel to Russia’s own abandoned weapons in Syria for the same reason.
I have previously suggested they go to the ethnic armies and PDF militias in Burma (Myanmar). These arms would not move the needle in Ukraine, but would make all the difference in the world against the Tatmadaw. This would build goodwill on a populist level worldwide for Israel in helping brutally oppressed people trying to defeat a military junta with no legitimacy that nonetheless has them massively outgunned. Let’s see how the Tatmadaw copes if their airfields come under rocket fire and they can no longer count on air support for their isolated garrisons.
Will Israel use these and if not, could the help the Ukes?
