The Israel Defence Forces on Thursday confirmed carrying out drone strikes in southern Lebanon that killed two Hezbollah operatives.
The first strike killed a Naval Commander in Hezbollah’s Radwan Force, Hassan Ahmad Sabra, in the area of Kfour in southern Lebanon.
Additionally, another Hezbollah terrorist involved in efforts to reestablish terror infrastructure in the Al-Naqoura area in southern Lebanon was struck and eliminated.
These terrorists’ actions constitute a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon, the IDF added.

The ceasefire agreement between Hezbollah and Israel, brokered by the United States and France, went into effect on November 27, 2024, aiming to halt over a year of clashes sparked by the Gaza Strip war.
While the ceasefire has generally held, there have been reported incidents of violations by both sides. Israel has accused Hezbollah of violating the ceasefire by moving fighters south of the Litani River, while Lebanon claims Israeli attacks have continued, resulting in civilian casualties.
