Three Hezbollah regional unit commanders were killed in Israeli airstrikes in the past two days, the IDF says.

According to the military, strikes carried out by fighter jets in the previous 48 hours targeted and killed the commanders of Hezbollah’s Jibchit, Jouaiyya and Qana areas.

The commanders were responsible for rocket and missile fire on Israeli towns from their respective areas, the IDF says.

Meanwhile, in the past day alone, the military says that some 70 Hezbollah operatives were killed in airstrikes and ground operations in southern Lebanon.

Troops also located and destroyed tunnels and caches of weapons, the IDF adds.
