The Hezbollah terror group announces the death of a member killed “on the road to Jerusalem,” its term for operatives slain in Israeli strikes.
He is named as Hussein Moussawi.
His death brings the terror group’s toll since the beginning of the war in the Gaza Strip to at least 432.
The announcement comes following a series of IDF strikes in southern Lebanon today. According to Lebanese media, one person was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Beit Lif earlier this evening.
