IAF strikes Hezbollah underground headquarters, kills 50 terrorists

Israel Air Force (IAF) jets struck on Monday various Hezbollah underground headquarters on its southern front, eliminating terrorists who were planning to attack Israel’s northern communities, IDF Spokesperson R.-Adm. Daniel Hagari said on Tuesday.

Hagari noted that the terrorists were responsible for carrying out Hezbollah’s “conquer the Galilee” plan.

Using precise intelligence from the Intelligence Directorate, in conjunction with the Northern Command and Operations Directorate, 100 jets struck Hezbollah’s Natzer, Bader, and Aziz units, along with its Radwan forces.
