IDF Eliminates Senior Hezbollah Commander in Southern Lebanon Strike (VIDEO)

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have confirmed the elimination of a senior Hezbollah commander linked to the al-Mansouri complex in southern Lebanon.

According to military officials, the commander was responsible for orchestrating attacks against Israel, transferring weapons, and attempting to rebuild the strategic militant site that had previously been targeted and dismantled by Israeli forces.

The IDF identified the commander as a key figure within Hezbollah’s southern operations, describing him as a “central operative” involved in reviving the group’s infrastructure near the Israeli border. His activities reportedly included planning assaults, overseeing weapons smuggling routes, and coordinating militant cells in the al-Mansouri region.

“This strike is part of a broader effort to dismantle Hezbollah’s military capabilities in southern Lebanon and to prevent the reestablishment of hostile infrastructure near our borders,” the IDF said in a statement.

The operation comes amid heightened tensions along the Israel-Lebanon border, where exchanges of fire and targeted strikes have increased in recent months. Israeli officials have warned that Hezbollah’s efforts to rebuild military sites and stockpile weapons pose a growing threat to regional stability.

Military sources indicated that the targeted operation was based on precise intelligence and aimed at disrupting future attacks being planned from within Lebanese territory. The IDF reaffirmed its commitment to preemptive action against threats emanating from Hezbollah’s presence along the northern front.

While Hezbollah has not yet issued an official response, past incidents of senior operatives being killed have often led to escalations. Observers are closely watching for potential retaliatory moves that could inflame an already volatile situation.

The latest strike underscores Israel’s strategic focus on neutralizing high-ranking figures within Hezbollah’s operational chain and sending a message that efforts to rebuild terror infrastructure will not go unanswered.
