The IDF says it killed two Hezbollah operatives in separate strikes within an hour in southern Lebanon earlier today.

The first strike, in the Nabatieh area, killed Muhammad Ali Hadid, who the IDF says is a commander in Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force.

“The terrorist advanced numerous terror attacks against the State of Israel, and recently, he has continued attempts to reestablish Hezbollah terror infrastructure sites,” the IDF says.

The second strike, in Ayta ash-Shab, killed an unnamed operative who was carrying out surveillance on Israeli troops, the military says.
