Israel Kills Hezbollah Members in Syria and Lebanon in Series of Strikes  - 1

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said , that they liquidated a member of "Hezbollah" in Syria, who has been passing intelligence to the Lebanese Shiite group on its operations in the Golan Heights, Reuters reported. The member of the "Golan Terrorist Network", Adham Jahut, was killed in the Syrian province of Quneitra. According to the IDF, he was helping "Hezbollah" with information from the Syrian government and the front, which facilitated the group's operations against Israel in the region, cited by BTA.

In addition, the Israeli army reported that an airstrike in southern Lebanon killed two Hezbollah commanders, and a strike on an arms depot in the Beirut area hit other important infrastructure sites.

Israeli attacks were not limited to Lebanon. Syrian state television reported that Israel had struck a car factory in Homs and a military site near Hama. Explosions were also heard in the Syrian city of Daraa.

Israel has been attacking Iran-linked sites in Syria for years, but stepped up after October 7, 2023, when "Hamas" attacked northern Israel, thus starting a new phase of the war in the Gaza Strip.

The Golan Heights remained a strategically important region after Israel captured it during the 1967 Six-Day War and later annexed the area. However, much of the international community does not recognize Israeli sovereignty over these territories.
