The Israeli military said today it has eliminated another key member of Hezbollah as it continues to attack the Iran-backed group.
Adham Jahout, a member of the "Golan Terrorist Network" within Hezbollah, was killed by an airstrike in the Quneitra area of Syria, the Israeli army said.
Jahout has been gathering intelligence from sources inside the Syrian regime, and has facilitated operations against Israel in the Golan Heights, the military said, among other things.
Israel annexed the Golan Heights after fighting Syria in the 1967 war.
This annexation has not been recognized by most states.
Separately, the Israeli military said on October 10 that it had also eliminated two Hezbollah commanders in southern Lebanon, and that its planes had attacked ammunition depots in the Beirut area and southern Lebanon.
The identities of the two commanders have not been released.
Hezbollah, the militant group and political party that controls much of southern Lebanon, has been declared a terrorist organization by the United States, while the European Union has blacklisted only the armed wing, but not the party, which has seats in Parliament of Lebanon.
The new attacks were carried out as the United States, Israel's main ally, warned against bombings in Lebanon similar to those that have devastated Gaza.
The Israeli military has launched an offensive against Hamas - the Palestinian group designated as a terrorist group by the US and the EU - in retaliation for the group's attacks in southern Israel in October last year, which left more than 1,100 people dead. killed.
Israeli shelling in central and northern Gaza in recent days has killed dozens of people, according to Palestinian officials.
"There should be no military action in Lebanon that looks similar to that of Gaza and results in something like Gaza," said US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller on October 9.
This warning came after the American President, Joe Biden, told the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, that there is a need for a diplomatic agreement, for the return of Lebanese and Israeli civilians to their homes, on both sides of the border.
