Israeli air forces have conducted multiple strikes in southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah strongholds and resulting in the death of senior commander Bass Mustafa Shukr. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported that they eliminated 64 Hezbollah terrorists and destroyed over 175 terror targets in recent operations, which also included close-quarters combat. In addition to the airstrikes, the IDF carried out ground raids, neutralizing 45 fighters and uncovering large caches of weapons.
