Enemy media: 🔴 Urgent: The Israeli army said it killed Abu Hassan Alaa, a senior commander in Hezbollah’s Badr unit, in an airstrike in Deir al-Zahrani, in response to a Hezbollah operation against its forces in the security zone. According to the army, he helped plan attacks against its forces, including launching explosive drones in southern Lebanon, and over recent years commanded several combat fronts against the Israeli army and Israeli civilians. It said the strike took place yesterday, Saturday, after what it described as a Hezbollah attack on Israeli forces that seriously wounded three soldiers. Lebanese media reported that the Deir al-Zahrani strike on Saturday morning killed two people, including Ali Muhammad Fakhr al-Din, also known as Abu Hassan Alaa, whom the Israeli army identifies as a senior commander in Hezbollah’s Badr formation responsible for the area north of the Litani River.
