The 6th Brigade made up of reservist soldiers, joined on Thursday the IDF's limited ground operations in Lebanon against the Hezbollah terrorist organization, the military stated while sharing footage of the brigade's activities.

The 6th Brigade was among the many to tackle the threats by Hezbollah as the terror group began launching attacks on October 8 - a day after Hamas’s massive attacks on southern Israel.   The brigade congregated multiple times over the last year to train for the possibility of a ground incursion.
