IDF Confirms: Heads of Hezbollah's Elite Radwan Force Eliminated
On Friday, September 20, in a precise strike, IAF jets guided by the Intelligence Directorate, targeted and eliminated Ibrahim Aqil, head of operations and commander of the Radwan Force of the Hezbollah terrorist organization, during a meeting with Radwan Force commanders in the Dahieh neighborhood of Beirut.
In addition to Aqil, 15 other Hezbollah terrorists were eliminated in the strike, including senior commanders in the Radwan Force chain of command.
Among the terrorists eliminated, was Abu Hassan Samir, who served as the head of the Radwan Force training unit. He was commander of the Radwan Force for a decade until early 2024.
Additionally, commanders and senior officials in the organization and within the Radwan Force headquarters were eliminated. These commanders had been leading and planning the Radwan Force’s attack and infiltration plan into Israeli territory for years, to be executed when given the order.
Aqil and the commanders eliminated in the strike were responsible for planning, advancing, and executing hundreds of terrorist operations against Israel. The IDF also said that Aquil was overseeing a planned operation to invade the Galilee.
The IDF reported, “Following the sirens that sounded throughout the past day in the areas of the Upper Galilee, Golan Heights, and Safed area, approximately 90 projectile launches were identified crossing from Lebanon into Israeli territory. Over the past hours, the IAF struck thousands of launcher barrels that were ready for immediate use to fire toward Israeli territory.” (INN / VFI News)
