The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Thursday that it eliminated Ahmed Adnan Bajija, a battalion commander in Hezbollah's elite Radwan force, in an airstrike in southern Lebanon.
The military claimed that the individual killed carried out multiple attacks targeting Israel and the IDF troops during the war, adding that during the ceasefire, he continued to "engage in advancing terror attacks on the Israeli home front."
Since the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect on November 27, Israeli forces have repeatedly launched attacks on southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah operatives who were allegedly engaged in arms smuggling. In addition, Israel announced that its troops would remain at five strategic points that control the buffer zone in Lebanon "indefinitely," although the deadline for Israeli troops' withdrawal from the latter country expired on February 18.
