The Hezbollah terror group announces the deaths of two members killed “on the road to Jerusalem,” its term for operatives slain in Israeli strikes.

The announcement comes after an Israeli airstrike on a facility belonging to the terror group in northeastern Lebanon overnight, as well as other sites in southern Lebanon.

The operatives are named as Bilal a-Din, of the south Lebanon village of Majdel Selm, and Abbas Nasser, from Tayr Felsay, a town in the Tyre District.

Their deaths bring the terror group’s toll since the beginning of the war in the Gaza Strip to at least 336.
