Israel’s military has confirmed that it killed senior Hezbollah commander Taleb Abdallah, also known as Abu Taleb.

In a post on its official Telegram channel, the IDF said:

Last night, a Hezbollah command and control centre in the area of Jouya in southern Lebanon, which was used to direct terror attacks against Israeli territory from south-eastern Lebanon in recent months, was struck by the IAF.

As part of the strike, Taleb Abdallah, the commander of the Nasr Unit in the Hezbollah terrorist organisation, was eliminated. Taleb Abdallah was one of Hezbollah’s most senior commanders in southern Lebanon. For many years, the terrorist planned, advanced, and carried out a large number of terror attacks against Israeli civilians.

Three additional Hezbollah terrorist operatives were also eliminated in the strike.

Israel does not always comment officially on strikes it has carried out outside its borders.
