Top Hezbollah commander killed in Lebanon after IDF drone strike, terror group says
[NYPost version] A top commander in Hezbollah’s al-Hajj Radwan Force was killed on Saturday in southern Lebanon, the terrorist organization has confirmed.

The Israel Defense Forces released aerial footage online, showing the drone strike that is believed to have taken out Hussein Ibrahim Kassab.

Kassab was killed as he rode a motorcycle through the coastal city of Tyre, The Times of Israel reported.

Hezbollah did not provide information about Kassab’s position or rank.

The IDF said Kassab’s death marks the 412th killing of a Hezbollah operative since Oct. 7.

Hezbollah, meanwhile, launched 55 rockets at northern Israel on Saturday in response to a deadly Israeli airstrike overnight that left 10 people dead near the city of Nabatieth in south Lebanon.

The IDF said some of the Hezbollah rockets fell in open areas while others ignited multiple fires.

No injuries were reported.
