The IDF releases audio of the radio communications between the chief of the Israeli Air Force, Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar, and the commander of the 69th Squadron, which carried out the strike killing Hezbollah terror chief Hassan Nasrallah.
“You delivered a show of victory here… well done,” Bar says to Lt. Col. “Mem” moments after the strike.
“We really hope that we’ve decapitated this terror organization, well done,” Bar says.
“Thank you very much, commander. We will reach everyone, everywhere and we will do whatever is necessary to bring the hostages back and return the residents of the north home,” the squadron commander responds.
