The IDF confirms carrying out a drone strike in Lebanon’s northeastern city of Baalbek last night, killing a Hezbollah operative.
According to the military, the Hezbollah operative Hussein Sharif was a senior weapons dealer and supplier, and worked from Lebanon to direct terror cells in Syria to carry out attacks against Israel.
His actions “constituted a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon,” the IDF adds.
