The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claim to have killed another Hezbollah commander responsible for recent attacks in northern Israel.

The IDF said on Sunday morning that the Israeli Air Force (IAF) attacked and killed terrorist Farouk Amin Alasi, the Hezbollah commander of the Khiam area.

Alasi was responsible for carrying out numerous anti-tank missile and rocket attacks on Israeli communities in the Galilee Panhandle and particularly on Metula.

This came a day after the IDF claimed to have killed two Hezbollah commanders blamed for more than 400 attacks against Israel in October.

IDF troops continue their operational activity in southern Lebanon. The IDF destroyed Radwan forces and other Hezbollah terrorists through air strikes and hand-to-hand combat. In addition, troops found large quantities of Hezbollah weapons.

Last week, on the instructions of IDF intelligence, the IAF attacked and killed terrorist Raafat Ibrahim Mahmoud Akdeih, a Nukhba terrorist who infiltrated Kibbutz Nir Oz during the brutal terrorist attack on October 7, 2023. During the war, Akdieh served as an aide to the commander of Islamic Jihad's Nukhba forces in the Khan Junis Brigade.
