A source close to Hezbollah says a senior field commander has been killed in an Israeli strike in Lebanon.

“A Hezbollah commander responsible for one of three sectors in south Lebanon was killed” in an “Israeli strike on a car in Tyre,” the source says, requesting anonymity as they were not authorized to speak to the media.

The Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath reports that the Hezbollah commander killed in the Israeli strike in Tyre was Abu Ali Nasser, the head of the terror group’s Aziz unit, one of three regional divisions in south Lebanon.

The unit is responsible for the eastern district on the Israel-Lebanon border.
