Israeli Strike Kills Hezbollah Commander In Lebanon (Photos)

An Israeli strike on south Lebanon on Monday killed a senior commander in Hezbollah’s elite Radwan force, three security sources told Reuters.

Security sources identified him as Wissam al-Tawil. He and another Hezbollah fighter were killed when their car was hit in a strike in Lebanon.

This is a very painful strike,” one of the security sources said. Another said, “things will flare up now.”

Israeli bombardment has killed more than 130 Hezbollah fighters in southern Lebanon since cross-border shelling began in the aftermath of Hamas’s attack on Israeli territory on Oct. 7. Another 19 have been killed in Syria.

Hezbollah’s secretary-general Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah warned Israel in two televised addresses last week not to launch a full-scale war on Lebanon.

“Whoever thinks of war with us – in one word, he will regret it,” Nasrallah said.
