Terrorists launching rockets at Israel eliminated in Lebanon

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) conducted an air strike on the Lebanese Bekaa region. As a result of the attack, two members of a Lebanese militant group that fired missiles at Israel were killed.

This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Reuters.

According to the Israeli military, their aviation struck and killed Mosab Khalaf in the Meidoun area of Lebanon. He was a member of the Jamaa Islamiyah group and organized attacks against Israel.

The terrorist group said in a statement that two of its field commanders, Khalaf and his relative, were killed in the strike.

A Lebanese security source confirmed that Khalaf was a local official in the armed wing of the Fajr group, which has previously fired rockets at Israel.

This was the first time that Tel Aviv confirmed the targeting of a member of Jama'a Islamiyah in Lebanon. Although earlier strikes had killed more than a dozen members of the group.

At the same time, Hezbollah and Israeli militants are exchanging fire across Lebanon's southern border. An Israeli strike on Friday killed two Hezbollah militants.
