Israeli Defense Forces eliminated a top Islamic Jihad commander with an airstrike in Lebanon, the IDF announced Monday.
The IDF says its strike eliminated Wael Mahmoud Abd al-Halim, who served as the Islamic Jihad’s Commander of the Beqaa region in Lebanon.
“Al-Halim led the integration of Islamic Jihad terrorists into combat operations alongside Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon and operated to advance terrorist attacks against IDF soldiers in recent weeks,” the IDF said in a statement.
The strike that eliminated Abd al-Halim was one of 30 Israel caried out over the past 24 hours in Lebanon.
The IDF said the strikes targeted a “weapon storage facility, observation posts, and structures from which the Hezbollah terrorist organization operated in order to advance terror attacks against IDF soldiers and the State of Israel.”
