An Israeli strike in the coastal Lebanese city of Tyre earlier today killed a Hezbollah artillery commander, the IDF says.
According to the IDF, the Hezbollah operative Ali Nour a-Din headed an artillery team based out of a village in southern Lebanon.
The military says the operative advanced numerous attacks on Israel during the war, and recently worked to restore Hezbollah’s rocket capabilities in southern Lebanon.
“The terrorist’s activities constituted a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon,” the military adds.
