A Hezbollah battalion commander in the Khiam area of southern Lebanon was killed in a recent airstrike, the IDF says.
The military says that the Hezbollah commander, Hussein Abd al-Halim Harb, was responsible for numerous rocket attacks on towns in the Galilee, especially Metula.
Meanwhile, during ground operations in southern Lebanon in the past day, the IDF says several Hezbollah operatives behind rocket fire on Israel were killed in airstrikes directed by troops of the 36th Division.
