Israel takes out commander of elite Hezbollah unit in drone strike
Israeli forces killed a commander of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan unit in a drone strike over southern Lebanon on Monday, officials say.
Video of the attack shows the moment the Israel Defense Force drone focuses on the car carrying Ali Jamal al-Din Jawad on a dirt road in the village of Aabba, with a missile fired within seconds to blow up the vehicle.
The car erupts into fire and smoke, leaving only debris in its wake as the blast manages to avoid the vehicles driving in front of Jawad’s.
The IDF touted his death as a “significant blow” to Hezbollah’s abilities to carry out more attacks on northern Israel after drone strikes from the terror group Monday morning.
One of the attacks left two IDF soldiers wounded and caused a blaze in northern Israel, while another was intercepted by Israel’s aerial defense system.
