IDF: Hezbollah commander, family killed in southern Lebanon when bomb intended for terror attack detonated

A Hezbollah field commander was killed in southern Lebanon this morning when an explosive device intended for a terror attack detonated, according to the Israeli military.

The IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee says in a post on X that the explosion killed the Hezbollah commander, Abbas Haidar, along with his family, in the Tyre area.

“I remind the Lebanese people that Hezbollah weaponry is a double-edged sword and risks, first and foremost, the Lebanese population and even the Hezbollah environment itself. Stay away from Hezbollah weapons!”
