The IDF launched an additional precision strike in the Dahieh district in Beirut on Saturday, the military reported, mere hours after the Hezbollah terrorist organization confirmed the death of its former leader, Hassan Nasrallah.
The military targeted a mid-level senior Hezbollah official in the area, Army Radio reported. It was later revealed that the target was Nabil Kauk – a member of the Hezbollah Central Council, according to Sky News Arabic.
Earlier strikes in Lebanon
Earlier, in Friday night strikes near the Syrian border, the IDF targeted rocket and missile launcher production sites, along with smuggling routes used by the Lebanon-based terrorist organization, the military announced the following afternoon.
The Israeli military stated that the “weapons and components have been smuggled from the east into Lebanon and delivered to manufacturing sites, where a range of weapons are produced—including precision-guided missiles—to be used in attacks against the State of Israel.”
The IDF also noted that it continued to strike more Hezbollah terrorist targets in Lebanon on Saturday afternoon.
