Hezbollah says operative killed in southern Lebanon strike
The Hezbollah terror group says a strike on the southern Lebanon border town of Bint Jbeil killed one of its fighters, naming him as Ali Ahmed Saad (Jibril).
Saad was apparently killed during Israeli strikes on Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon on Saturday afternoon, in response to repeated attacks on northern Israel.
Earlier reports claimed him as a civilian. Hezbollah says he was killed “on the road to Jerusalem,” a euphemism it uses to eulogize its fighters.
Hebzollah announces the death of a combatant, definitely not any way, shape, or form a civilian. He is identified as Ali Ahmed Saad (Jibril). https://t.co/8ho1vMcRaQ pic.twitter.com/H3hSVcIBLw
