Israel said on Sunday it had uncovered all cross-border attack tunnels it says were dug by Hezbollah from Lebanon and will bring its operation to find and destroy them to an end after more than a month.
The operation had raised concerns that Hezbollah, the Lebanon-based Shia group and avowed enemy of Israel, would respond and spark a new conflict between them, but the border has remained calm throughout, AFP said.
