 "Hours after killing Hezbollah commander in Baraachit area, IDF takes down another in Lebanon")
Hours after Israel said that they have killed a top Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) on Monday claimed to have taken down another commander in the Hezbollah Radwan force’s anti-tank missile system.
According to The Guardian report, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) identified him as Riad Rida Ghazzawi, who “planned and executed a significant amount of terrorist attacks, including firing anti-tank missiles at Israeli civilians and at IDF troops operating in southern Lebanon.”
Earlier today, Israel said it had killed Hezbollah commander Abu Ali Rida in the Baraachit area in southern Lebanon.
The claims, however, have not been independently verified.
In a message on its official Telegram channel, Israel’s military said he commanded the Baraachit area in southern Lebanon.
The IDF described him as being “responsible for planning and executing rocket and anti-tank missile attacks on IDF troops.”
Meanwhile, the IDF troops continue to conduct limited, localised, targeted raids in southern Lebanon, dismantling terrorist infrastructure, locating weapons, and eliminating terrorists.
Israel’s military has been staging incursions inside Lebanon since 1 October, claiming to be targeting Hezbollah.
Lebanese authorities have reported over 2,800 dead in Israeli attacks on Lebanon in the past month.
