An Israeli drone strike last night in southern Lebanon’s Nabatieh killed a Hezbollah commander, the military says.
The IDF says it targeted and killed Hassan Kamal Halawi, chief of Hezbollah’s anti-tank missile unit in southern Lebanon.
“During the war, Halawi was responsible for numerous terror attacks against the State of Israel. He facilitated the movement of operatives and the supply of weapons into southern Lebanon. In recent months, Halawi continued to engage in terrorist activity against Israeli civilians,” the army says in statement.
The IDF adds that he was targeted because he posed a threat to Israel.
