A short while ago, in full coordination with the local community of Debel in southern Lebanon, the damaged statue was replaced by IDF troops.

The Northern Command worked to coordinate the replacement of the statue from the moment it received the report of the incident.

The IDF expresses deep regret over the incident, and is working to ensure that it does not happen again in the future.
