💥 MASS STRIKE IN LEBANON TARGETS HEZBOLLAH COMMAND STRUCTURE: The IDF confirms that more than 250 Hezbollah terrorists and commanders were eliminated in the largest strike conducted in Lebanon during Operation Roaring Lion on April 8, 2026.

The strikes were carried out across Beirut, the Beqaa, and southern Lebanon following continuous intelligence monitoring. The IDF says the operation dealt a precise and significant blow to Hezbollah’s command and control infrastructure.

The IDF is now revealing for the first time some of the commanders eliminated in the strike. According to the military, they were responsible for Hezbollah’s key operational systems, especially its firepower, intelligence, and defensive capabilities.

Hassan Mustafa Nasser was identified as Commander of Hezbollah’s Logistics Support Headquarters. The IDF says he was responsible for smuggling and storing weapons in Lebanon and was a central figure in Hezbollah’s rehabilitation efforts and force buildup in southern Lebanon.

Ali Qassem, Abu Ali Abbas, and Ali Hijazi were identified as senior commanders in Hezbollah’s intelligence unit. The IDF says they were responsible for intelligence assessments on the State of Israel, including target bank development and intelligence collection.

Abu Muhammad Habib was identified as Deputy Commander of Hezbollah’s Missile Unit. The IDF says that throughout the war, and particularly during Operation Northern Arrows, he was involved in missile launches toward the State of Israel and recently led force-building efforts within the missile unit.

The military adds that additional operatives responsible for artillery and defensive capabilities across Hezbollah’s various units were also eliminated. Battle damage assessment is still ongoing, and more Hezbollah operatives continue to be identified.

The IDF says it will continue operating against the Hezbollah terrorist organization and its military capabilities.
