A top Hezbollah field commander was killed in last night’s drone strike in southern Lebanon, the military says.
Hussein Ibrahim Makki, according to the IDF, was a senior commander in the terror group’s so-called Southern Front unit. He previously commanded Hezbollah’s coastal division, the military says.
Hezbollah announced his death earlier following the airstrike near Tyre, but did not refer to him as a commander.
The IDF says Makki “planned and carried out many terror attacks against the Israeli home front amid the war.”
some more interesting details: he is the 300th killed acknowledged by Hezbollah, although IDF belives that they have over 450 eliminated they typically admit only the losses of experienced fighter or commanders(additionally, the IDF has eliminated over 50 Hamas wing in Lebanon, +100 more from Amal terror organization)
As you can see he was targeted using 3 missiles to make sure he wouldn’t survive, he was killed alonsinde his 2 bodyguards.
Israel has eliminated over 30 senior commanders in the Hezbollah organization, so the majority of the commanders in the south have been liquidated, and the remaining are hiding 24/7 in bunkers.
yesterday Hezbolla targeted an Israeli civilian using ATGM, 24 Israelis have been killed in the north since 8.10, almost half of them are civilians.
