The Israel Defense Forces on Wednesday eliminated a Hezbollah Radwan Force platoon commander in Lebanon’s Ain Qana area, approximately 13 miles from the Israeli border.

Issa Ahmad Karbala “advanced the transfer of weapons in Lebanon and advanced terror attacks against the State of Israel,” the military stated, adding that he had violated the truce understandings with Lebanon.

The Radwan Force is the Hezbollah unit tasked with infiltrating Israeli territory, seizing areas along the northern border and abducting hostages as part of the terror group’s “Conquer the Galilee” plan.

The IDF emphasized in its statement on Wednesday that it would “continue to operate to remove any threat to the State of Israel.”

On Nov. 26, 2024, Israel and Lebanon signed a ceasefire deal aimed at ending more than a year of cross-border clashes between the IDF and Hezbollah. The Iranian-backed terror group began attacking the Jewish state in support of Hamas in the aftermath of its Oct. 7, 2023, massacre.

Since the truce, the IDF has conducted frequent raids to stop Hezbollah from rebuilding terrorist infrastructure across Southern Lebanon, thereby violating the terms of the ceasefire agreement.

On Monday, the IDF struck Hezbollah infrastructure in the Nabatieh area of Southern Lebanon. The strike came a day after it dismantled Hezbollah posts in the Har Dov area near the border with Israel.

Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem has rejected demands to disarm in accordance with the truce, warning in July that the terrorist group was “rebuilding, recovering and ready now” to take on the IDF.
