IDF Eliminates Over 10 Hezbollah Field Commanders in Southern Lebanon Operations

JERUSALEM (VINnews)-The Israel Defense Forces have killed more than 10 Hezbollah field commanders responsible for directing operations against Israeli troops in southern Lebanon, the military said.

In March, IDF forces killed Hassan Salameh, the commander of Hezbollah’s Nasr Unit, one of the terror group’s three regional divisions in southern Lebanon. Since then, the military has eliminated two of his successors, Mahdi Bazi and Ashraf Salloum, one after the other, according to the IDF.

Separately, within a recent 12-hour period, the IDF killed Nasser Shakir, the commander of Hezbollah forces in the Beaufort Castle area, and his replacement, Ahmad Sablini, who had previously served as deputy commander in that sector.

The military also announced the deaths of several other senior Hezbollah operatives in the region:

Ali Abbas, commander of Hezbollah forces in Bint Jbeil

Kamil Younes, commander of the Tyre sector

Fouad Moussa, commander of the Hajir sector

Hussein Salami, commander of the Jibshit sector

Ali Haik, commander of the Khiam sector

Muslim Harb, commander of the Qana sector

The targeted killings come amid ongoing IDF operations aimed at degrading Hezbollah’s command structure and operational capabilities along Israel’s northern border. Hezbollah has not yet commented on the reported deaths.
