ISRAEL has developed a new elite combat unit which would be used in a future war with the Lebanese Shi’ite Hezbollah movement, Israeli media reported on Tuesday.

According to a report on the Walla news site, the new unit — codenamed “Ghosts” — is made up of soldiers recruited from other elite units in the armed forces.

It was originally established in 2019 and was developed for “secret capabilities,” the report said.
